Automatic Classification of Volcanic Earthquakes in HMM-Induced Vector Spaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
Even though hidden Markov models (HMMs) have been used for the automatic classification of volcanic earthquakes, their usage has been so far limited to the Bayesian scheme. Recently proposed alternatives, proven in other application scenarios, consist in building HMMinduced vector spaces where discriminative classification techniques can be applied. In this paper, a simple vector space is induced by considering log-likelihoods of the HMMs (per-class) as dimensions. Experimental results show that the discriminative classification in such an induced space leads to better performances than those obtained with the standard Bayesian scheme.

Speech Recognition based Automatic Earthquake Detection and Classification
We present a novel technique to solve the automatic detection and classification problem of earth tremor in a single step by using Hidden Markov Modelling (HMM). While this technique was originally developed in speech recognition, it already showed great promise when applied to volcano induced seismic signals. We apply the HMM classifier to a much simpler problem, i.e. the detection and distanc...
متن کاملGlobal observation of vertical-CLVD earthquakes at active volcanoes
[1] Some of the largest and most anomalous volcanic earthquakes have non-double-couple focal mechanisms. Here, we investigate the link between volcanic unrest and the occurrence of non-double-couple earthquakes with dominant vertical tension or pressure axes, known as vertical compensated-linear-vector-dipole (vertical-CLVD) earthquakes. We determine focal mechanisms for 313 target earthquakes ...

متن کاملAutomatic Interpretation of UltraCam Imagery by Combination of Support Vector Machine and Knowledge-based Systems
With the development of digital sensors, an increasing number of high-resolution images are available. Interpretation of these images is not possible manually, which necessitates seeking for practical, fast and automatic solutions to solve the environmental and location-based management problems. The land cover classification using high-resolution imagery is a difficult process because of the c...
