Earthquake Probabilities and Energy Characteristics of Seismicity Offshore Southwest Taiwan
We characterize fault geometries for moderate and large earthquakes in and offshore southwest (SW) Taiwan. Stress orientation estimates suggest that the first shock of the Pingtung earthquake may be characterized by slab flexure. A region of predominately normal-faulting earthquakes is also defined. Using the maximum-likelihood Gutenberg-Richter relation, we find that the repeat times for magni...
متن کاملArtefacts of earthquake location errors and short-term incompleteness on seismicity clusters in southern California
Wedocument and quantify effects of two types of catalogue uncertainties—earthquake location errors and short-term incompleteness—on results of statistical cluster analyses of seismicity in southern California. In the main part of the study we analyse 117 076 events with m ≥ 2 in southern California during 1981–2013 from the waveform-relocated catalogue of Hauksson et al. We present statistical ...
متن کاملA Physically Based Earthquake Recurrence Model for Estimation of Long-Term Earthquake Probabilities
A physically-motivated model for earthquake recurrence based on the Brownian relaxation oscillator is introduced. The renewal process defining this point process model can be described by the steady rise of a state variable from the ground state to failure threshold as modulated by Brownian motion. Failure times in this model follow the Brownian passage time (BPT) distribution, which is specifi...
متن کاملStatistical short-term earthquake prediction.
A statistical procedure, derived from a theoretical model of fracture growth, is used to identify a foreshock sequence while it is in progress. As a predictor, the procedure reduces the average uncertainty in the rate of occurrence for a future strong earthquake by a factor of more than 1000 when compared with the Poisson rate of occurrence. About one-third of all main shocks with local magnitu...
متن کاملA Simple Method For Estimating Conditional Probabilities For SVMs
Support Vector Machines (SVMs) have become a popular learning algorithm, in particular for large, high-dimensional classification problems. SVMs have been shown to give most accurate classification results in a variety of applications. Several methods have been proposed to obtain not only a classification, but also an estimate of the SVMs confidence in the correctness of the predicted label. In...
