Prediction apparatus and method for n value using artificial intelligence and data augmentation

Abstract

An N-value prediction apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a hypothetical learning data augmentation unit, based on an actual N-value measured at an actual location according to the Standard Penetration Test through drilling investigation, generating at least one of hypothetical N-values corresponding to a preset hypothetical point based on the actual location, an N-value prediction model learning unit learning ground characteristic data corresponding to each of the actual location and the hypothetical point by artificial intelligence, the ground characteristic data including the actual N-value and the hypothetical N-values, and an N-value prediction result calculation unit predicting an N-value at an arbitrary prediction target point by using an N-value prediction model generated by artificial intelligence learning executed in the N-value prediction model learning unit.
