Data-driven components in a model of inner-shelf sorted bedforms: a new hybrid model

Abstract: Abstract. Numerical models rely on the parameterization of processes that often lack a deterministic description. In this contribution we demonstrate the applicability of using machine learning, a class of optimization tools from the discipline of computer science, to develop parameterizations when extensive data sets exist. We develop a new predictor for near-bed suspended sediment reference concentration under unbroken waves using genetic programming, a machine learning technique. We demonstrate that this ne… Show more

“…Coupling theoretical components (3a) with machine learning parameterizations (3b) in this way is an example of a "hybrid" model [e.g., Krasnopolsky and Fox-Rabinovitz, 2006;Goldstein and Coco, 2015]. This contribution serves as a further example of the utility in using machine learning processes for constructing models of coastal environments [e.g., Goldstein et al, 2014;Limber et al, 2014].…”

“…The arrangement and value of constants, variables and mathematical operators are modified at each time step to develop candidate solutions (equations) that can reproduce the relationships present in the data. This technique has been used successfully in other coastal studies, [ Goldstein et al ., , ; Limber et al ., ; Tinoco et al ., ] and we refer the reader to these works and the initial work by Schmidt and Lipson [] for additional details of the technique.…”

“…However, most of the studies primarily focused on the sorting dynamics of sandy beaches, rivers, deltas, tidal basins, and inner continental shelves (e.g., Coco et al, 2007a,b;Frings, 2008;van der Wegen et al, 2011;Goldstein et al, 2011Goldstein et al, , 2014Viparelli et al, 2014), while intertidal flats received much less attention. To the authors' knowledge, there is currently no numerical study specifically addressing intertidal sediment sorting dynamics.…”

“…We select training data using a maximum dissimilarity algorithm (MDA) [ Camus et al ., ] and use this subsample in a genetic programming (GP) routine. GP [ Koza , ] is a population‐based optimization routine that has been previously used to examine other earth surface systems [ Kitsikoudis et al ., ; Baptist et al ., ; Goldstein et al ., ]. In contrast to other ML approaches, GP does not require a set basis function and can use a wide range of functional relationships as building blocks for the final expression.…”
