Description

This repository accompanies the manuscript “A Generalised Data-Driven Shoreline Model Trained on the South-East Australian Coastline”. It provides code, configuration files, and example data to reproduce the workflow for a regional-scale shoreline forecasting model.

The model adapts the Temporal Fusion Transformer (TFT) architecture to integrate dynamic wave forcing with static site descriptors, enabling forecasts that generalise across more than 300 beaches and 2000km without site-specific calibration. Included materials demonstrate model training, weight loading, evaluation, and ablation experiments.

To keep the archive lightweight, only a small sample transect dataset is included. The full shoreline and wave datasets used for training and evaluation are available separately on Zenodo. A pre-trained set of model weights (model_weights.pth) and an example Jupyter notebook (shorelineModel.ipynb) are provided.
