Recording of ground motions with high amplitudes of acceleration and velocity play a key role for designing engineering projects. Here we try to represent a reasonable prediction of peak ground acceleration which may create more than in different regions. In this study, applying different structures of Neural Networks (NN) and using four key parameters, moment magnitude, rupture distance, site class, and style of faulting which an earthquake may cause serious effects on a site. We introduced a radial basis function network (RBF) with mean error of 0.014, as the best network for estimating the occurrence probability of an earthquake with large value of PGA ≥1g in a region. Also the results of applying back propagation in feed forward neural network (FFBP) show a good coincidence with designed RBF results for predicting high value of PGA, with Mean error of 0.017.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
