In this paper, we propose a multi-site based earthquake event classification method using graph convolution networks. In the traditional earthquake event classification methods using deep learning, they used single-site observation to estimate seismic event class. However, to achieve robust and accurate earthquake event classification on the seismic observation network, the method using the information from the multi-site observations is needed, instead of using only single-site data. Firstly, our proposed model employs convolution neural networks to extract informative embedding features from the single-site observation. Secondly, graph convolution networks are used to integrate the features from several stations. To evaluate our model, we explore the model structure and the number of stations for ablation study. Finally, our multi-site based model outperforms up to 10 % accuracy and event recall rate compared to single-site based model.

This paper proposes a Convolutional Recurrent Neural Net (CRNN) structure that can simultaneously reflect both static and dynamic characteristics of seismic waveforms for various earthquake events classification. Addressing various earthquake events, including not only micro-earthquakes and artificial-earthquakes but also macro-earthquakes, requires both effective feature extraction and a classifier that can discriminate seismic waveform under noisy environment. First, we extract the static characteristics of seismic waveform through an attention-based convolution layer. Then, the extracted feature-map is sequentially injected as input to a multi-input single-output Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network structure to extract the dynamic characteristic for various seismic event classifications. Subsequently, we perform earthquake events classification through two fully connected layers and softmax function. Representative experimental results using domestic and foreign earthquake database show that the proposed model provides an effective structure for various earthquake events classification.

This paper presents an effective structure by applying various normalization to Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) for seismic event classification. Normalization techniques can not only improve the learning speed of neural networks, but also show robustness to noise. In this paper, we analyze the effect of input data normalization and hidden layer normalization on the deep learning model for seismic event classification. In addition an effective model is derived through various experiments according to the structure of the applied hidden layer. As a result of various experiments, the model that applied input data normalization and weight normalization to the first hidden layer showed the most stable performance improvement.

In this paper, a deep learning-based detection and classification using multi-band frequency signals is presented for detecting earthquakes prevalent in Korea. Based on an analysis of the previous earthquakes in Korea, it is observed that multi-band signals are appropriate for classifying earthquake signals. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a deep CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) using multi-band signals as training data. The proposed algorithm extracts the multi-band signals (Low/Medium/High frequency) by applying band pass filters to mel-spectrum of earthquake signals. Then, we construct three CNN architecture pipelines for extracting features and classifying the earthquake signals by a late fusion of the three CNNs. We validate effectiveness of the proposed method by performing various experiments for classifying the domestic earthquake signals detected in 2018.
