Toward Sustainable Coastal Environments: Coastal Hazards and Machine Learning

Explore the intersection of coastal hazards and machine learning in this 46-minute talk by Dr. Jun-Whan Lee, Assistant Professor at The University of Texas at Austin. Delve into the challenges faced by coastal regions due to increasing populations and rising sea levels, and discover how machine learning techniques are being applied to address the limitations of traditional physics-based models. Learn about innovative approaches that combine domain knowledge, clustering, and data reduction with deep learning to improve tsunami and storm surge modeling. Gain insights into the applications of these advanced machine learning methods in coastal hazard forecasting, assessment, and risk evaluation, paving the way for more sustainable coastal environments.
