Romo Ciencias de la Tierra PGA’s subduction attenuation Neuronal network An extensive analysis of the strong ground motion Mexican data base was conducted using Soft Computing (SC) techniques.A Neural Network NN is used to estimate both orthogonal components of the horizontal (PGAh) and vertical (PGAv) peak groundaccelerations measured at rock sites during Mexican subduction zone earthquakes. The work discusses the development, training,and testing of this neural model. Attenuation phenomenon was characterized in terms of magnitude, epicentral distance and focaldepth. Neural approximators were used instead of traditional regression techniques due to their fl exibility to deal with uncertaintyand noise. NN predictions follow closely measured responses exhibiting forecasting capabilities better than those of most establishedattenuation relations for the Mexican subduction zone. Assessment of the NN, was also applied to subduction zones in Japan andNorth America.
