Earthquake Likelihood Model Testing
The Regional Earthquake Likelihood Models (RELM) project aims to produce and evaluate alternate models of earthquake potential (probability per unit volume, magnitude, and time) for California. Based on differing assumptions, these models are produced both to test the validity of their assumptions and explore which models should be incorporated in seismic hazard and risk evaluation. Tests based...
متن کاملObjective Bayes testing of Poisson versus inflated Poisson models
The Poisson distribution is often used as a standard probability model for data involving counts. Quite often, however, such datasets are not well fit by a Poisson model because they contain more zero counts than are compatible with the Poisson model. For these situations, a zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) distribution is often proposed. This article addresses testing a Poisson versus a ZIP model, ...
متن کاملHypotheses Testing: Poisson versus Self-correcting
We consider the problem of hypotheses testing with the basic simple hypothesis: observed sequence of points corresponds to stationary Poisson process with known intensity against a composite one-sided parametric alternative that this is a self-correcting point process. The underlying family of measures is locally asymptotically quadratic and we describe the behavior of score function, likelihoo...

متن کاملStatistical Tests for Evaluating Earthquake Prediction Methods
The impact of including postcursors in the null hypothesis test is discussed. Unequal prediction probabilities can be included in the null hypothesis test using a generalization of the central limit theorem. A test for determining the enhancement factor over random chance is given. The seismic earthquake signal may preferentially precede earthquakes even if the VAN methodology fails to forecast...
