The prediction of extreme crest elevations is fundamental to the design of marine structures, irrespective of whether they are intended for deep-water offshore locations or shallow-water coastal locations. In undertaking design extreme crest elevations, specified in terms of either a 1 in 100 year or 1 in 10,000 year event, are relevant to both the overall geometry of the structure, particularl...

We seek to quantify both the classification performance and estimation error robustness of the authors’ tomographic classifier fusion methodology by contrasting it in field tests and model scenarios with the sum and product classifier fusion methodologies. In particular, we seek to confirm that the tomographic methodology represents a generally optimal strategy across the entire range of proble...
