This study describes operational test and evaluation of | |
two neural network applications that were integrated into | |
the Intelligent Monitoring System (IMS) for automated | |
processing and interpretation of regional seismic data. | |
Also reported is the result of a preliminary study on the | |
application of neural networks to regional seismic event | |
identification. The first application is for initial | |
identification of seismic phases (P or S) recorded by 3- | |
component stations based on polarization data and | |
context. This neural network performed 3-6% better than | |
the current rule-based system when tested on data | |
obtained from the 3-component IRIS stations in the former | |
Soviet Union. This resulted in an improved event bulletin | |
which showed that the number of analyst-verified events | |
that were missed by the automated processing decreased by | |
more than a factor of 2 (about 10 events/week). The | |
second operational test was conducted on the neural | |
network developed by MIT/Lincoln Laboratory for regional | |
final phase identification (e.g., Pn, Pg, Sn, Lg, and | |
Rg). This neural network performed 3. 3% better than the | |
rule-based system in IMS station processing. However, for | |
the final phase identifications obtained after network | |
processing (where data from all stations are combined), | |
the gain dropped to about 1.0%. It is likely that this | |
could be regained by using the neural network phase | |
identification confidence factors in the network | |
processing. Finally, our preliminary study on the | |
application of neural networks to identify regional | |
seismic events on the basis of coda shape gave about 80% | |
accuracy on data recorded at GERESS. In general, the | |
neural network classifier utilized the coda decay rate | |
which was lower for the earthquakes than it was for the | |
explosions, although there was substantial overlap. | |
