- A support vector machine seismic detector for early-warning applicationsPublication . Ruano, Antonio; Madureira, G.; Barros, O.; Khosravani, Hamid Reza; Ruano, M. Graça; Ferreira, P. M.This paper extends a Support Vector Machine (SVM) approach for the detection of seismic events, at the level of a seismic station. In previous works, it was shown that this approach produced excellent results, in terms of the Recall and Specificity measures, whether applied off-line or in a continuous scheme. The drawback was the time taken for achieving the detection, too large to be applied in a Early-Warning System (EWS). This paper shows that, by using alternative input features, a similar performance can be obtained, with a significant reduction in detection time. Additionally, it is experimentally proved that, whether off-line or in continuous operation, the best results are obtained when the SVM detector is trained with data originated from the respective seismic station.
