Abstract

The occurrence of soil liquefaction is an interesting and complicated field in the geotechnical earthquake, which has attained the consideration of a lot of analysts in current years. Liquefaction is a process, where the stiffness and strength of soil are minimized by sudden cyclic loading or earthquakes. Liquefaction and associated phenomenon were accountable for the massive quantity of damages during earlier earthquakes around the globe. Here, pre-processing is done with data normalization. Subsequently, the features including “statistical and raw features, higher-order statistical features, and improved entropy and Mutual Information (MI) features” are derived. Further, ensemble classifiers like “Deep Belief Network (DBN), Long Short Term Memory (LSTM), and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)” are deployed during prediction. Here, the outputs obtained from DBN and LSTM are fused and then given to optimized RNN, which provides the final predicted output. Particularly, the weights of RNN are fine-tuned by Opposition based Self Adaptive SSO (OSA-SSO) model. Eventually, the advantage of the adopted model is proven on diverse metrics. The accuracy of the developed approach was 9.09%, 8.08%, and 10.1% higher than the values obtained for traditional schemes such as EC + SSO, EC + SSA, EC + PRO, and EC + BOA at the 90th LP, respectively.
