Real-valued negative selection algorithm for abnormal earthquake detection

Earthquake prediction has been a research topic for many years. Many attempts have been made to predict the behavior of earthquake. However, there is yet another field of interest that is seldom explored by the researchers, which is detecting the abnormal behavior of the earthquake. The earthquake m...

description Earthquake prediction has been a research topic for many years. Many attempts have been made to predict the behavior of earthquake. However, there is yet another field of interest that is seldom explored by the researchers, which is detecting the abnormal behavior of the earthquake. The earthquake magnitude detection studies based on the analysis of historical earthquake data assumes a temporal model. Such models describe the frequencies of occurrence of seismic events as functions of their magnitudes. The most widely used magnitude-frequency model for hazard estimation is that based on the Gutenberg-Richter inverse power law. Artificial Immune System (AIS) has been a common approach in pattern recognition, optimization and many others.
