Machine Learning in Geohazard Risk Prediction and Assessment: From Microscale Analysis to Regional Mapping presents an overview of the most recent developments in machine learning techniques that have reshaped our understanding of geo-materials and management protocols of geo-risk. The book covers a broad category of research on machine-learning techniques that can be applied, from microscopic modeling to constitutive modeling, to physics-based numerical modeling, to regional susceptibility mapping. This is a good reference for researchers, academicians, graduate and undergraduate students, professionals, and practitioners in the field of geotechnical engineering and applied geology.
