A Probabilistic Nonparametric Model for the Vertical-to-Horizontal Spectral Ratio
This article develops a probabilistic nonparametric model for the vertical-to-horizontal spectral ratio of earthquake ground motions. Using Relevance Vector Machines, the spectral ratio is characterized based on ground motion records. Unlike conventional models, the proposed method does not require a functional form, and treats the model coefficients as random variables instead of fixed quantities. Demonstrative examples using records from strike-slip earthquakes are presented, and the results are compared to those from the conventional empirical models. The proposed model provides reasonably good estimates using only three predictive variables: magnitude, distance, and shear wave velocity. Future studies will investigate near-fault ground motions.
