准确预测和合成地震波形对于地震风险评估和抗震基础设施设计至关重要。现有方法如地面运动模型和基于物理的波场模拟往往无法捕捉高频段的完整波场复杂性。本文提出HighFEM,一种计算高效、可扩展(可并行生成大量地震记录)的高频率地震波形生成生成模型。该方法采用地震波形的谱图表示,通过自编码器将其降维至低维流形,并训练先进的扩散模型,在地震震级、观测距离、场地条件、震源深度和方位角缺口等关键参数条件下生成该潜变量。模型生成的波形频率成分最高可达50 Hz。任何标量地震动统计量(如峰值地面运动幅值、谱加速度)均可从合成波形中直接推导。我们使用常见的地震学指标及图像生成研究中的性能指标进行验证,结果表明,该开源模型可在广泛输入参数下生成逼真的高频地震波形,即使在数据稀疏区域亦表现良好。对于地震危险性与地震工程中常用的标量地震动统计量,模型能准确复现真实数据的中位趋势及其变异性。为评估和比较日益增多的此类生成式波形模型(GWMs),我们认为其应公开可用,并纳入社区地震动模型评估体系。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Accurate prediction and synthesis of seismic waveforms are crucial for seismic-hazard assessment and earthquake-resistant infrastructure design. Existing prediction methods, such as ground-motion models and physics-based wave-field simulations, often fail to capture the full complexity of seismic wavefields, particularly at higher frequencies. This study introduces HighFEM, a novel, computationally efficient, and scalable (i.e., capable of generating many seismograms simultaneously) generative model for high-frequency seismic-waveform generation. Our approach leverages a spectrogram representation of the seismic-waveform data, which is reduced to a lower-dimensional manifold via an autoencoder. A state-of-the-art diffusion model is trained to generate this latent representation conditioned on key input parameters: earthquake magnitude, recording distance, site conditions, hypocenter depth, and azimuthal gap. The model generates waveforms with frequency content up to 50 Hz. Any scalar ground-motion statistic, such as peak ground-motion amplitudes and spectral accelerations, can be readily derived from the synthesized waveforms. We validate our model using commonly employed seismological metrics and performance metrics from image-generation studies. Our results demonstrate that the openly available model can generate realistic high-frequency seismic waveforms across a wide range of input parameters, even in data-sparse regions. For the scalar ground-motion statistics commonly used in seismic-hazard and earthquake-engineering studies, we show that our model accurately reproduces both the median trends of the real data and their variability. To evaluate and compare the growing number of these and similar Generative Waveform Models (GWMs), we argue that they should be openly available and included in community ground-motion-model evaluation efforts.
