"Data-Driven and Physics-Informed Bayesian Sparse Dictionary Learning for Tunnelling-Induced Settlement Prediction"


On Tuesday, 20th October, 2026, at 3:30pm, Hozaifa Ahmed, PhD researcher at the University of Naples Federico II (UniNa), will present his work in SR-03, Guttenberghaus. You are warmly welcome to participate!

Hozaifa will present his ongoing research on predicting tunnelling-induced ground settlement using Bayesian Sparse Dictionary Learning, a data-driven framework combining ground modelling, finite element analysis, and uncertainty quantification from sparse monitoring data. The approach enables improved settlement prediction from sparse monitoring data, a common challenge in urban tunnelling projects.
