[SSS10-10] Diverse characteristics of seismic activity in comparison with spatio-temporal ETAS forecasts
Keywords:Delaunay triangle partition network, Hierarchical spatiotemporal ETAS model, Software HIST-PPM, Long-term prediction, Quasi-real-time correction estimation
In order to represent and elaborate the various regionalisms of seismic activity, the regionalism of various seismic activity models requires appropriate parameter values for each earthquake location. The parameter values at the location of future earthquakes are interpolated by the values at the vertices of the triangle consisting of the locations of past earthquakes. For this purpose, a Delaunay triangle partition network is constructed from the past earthquake locations, and the local linear interpolation of the parameter values is called the Delaunay function. To estimate the model, an optimal solution for the coefficients of the parameter function can be obtained by maximizing the penalized log-likelihood under appropriate smoothing constraints on the Delaunay function1) . This allows for high-resolution images in areas with dense seismic sites and precise spatio-temporal predictions during periods of seismic activity.
For example, the hierarchical spatiotemporal (HIST) ETAS model2) uses the Delaunay function as a key parameter of the spatiotemporal ETAS model, in addition to modeling the anisotropy of the earthquake concentration cluster geometry. In particular, the spatial intensity (occurrence rate) of background seismic activity varies over a range of several orders of magnitude within the seismogenic region, and the inversion solution, together with the magnitude-frequency function, has been found to be effective in predicting the location of large earthquakes over time. Nevertheless, they highlight the characteristics of diverse seismic activity.
Other HIST-ETAS parameters can also represent macroscopic regional characteristics of past seismic activity, but they may not always be able to predominantly predict various characteristics of specific future seismic activity anywhere and at any time. This suggests that the physical attributes of each seismogenic environment are highly heterogeneous and therefore unpredictable. The intensity of aftershocks, for example, is useful for providing standard short-term forecasts, but accurate individualized forecasts require quasi-real-time estimation.
In this presentation, the HIST-ETAS model and others. We will demonstrate the software HIST-PPM, which handles statistical models parameterized by Delaunay functions, and show various aspects of seismic activity.
