Jiancang Zhuang Inst. Statist. Math. Detecting spatial variations of earthquake clustering parameters via maximum weighted likelihood estimates

Motivations 1.Seismicity clusters differ from place to place. It is important to quantify such difference, for a better understanding of the connection between seismicity and tectonic environment and for better probability forecasts of earthquakes for different types of seismicity. 2.Fitting the space-time ETAS model for a small region with a few events makes the estimation and forecasts unstable. 3.Realization of weighted likelihood models is simple and straightforward.

Kernel Estimates Location-dependent Density /rate estimation Location-dependent model parameters of point process

Space-Time Epidemic Type Aftershock Sequence (ETAS) model  Seismicity rate = "background" + “Triggered seismicity":  Time distribution: the Omori-Utsu law  Spatial location distribution of children:  productivity: mean number of children

Likelihood and weighted likelihood

Comparing to Ogata's Bayesian method with a smoothness prior Ogata’s HIST ETAS modelWeighted likelihood Parameters estimation The parameters for each location must be estimated simultaneously. The parameters for each location can be estimated independently. Programming for parallel computation Not so easy.Easy. Triggering parameters Source location dependent.Target location dependent. Selection of Smoothness Objective selection of smoothnessSubjectively selection of kernel functions

Parameters should be all dual-way dependent on both the source and the target locations. To reduce the complexity of model implementation, since the events in an earthquake sequence are quite close in space, such differences could be neglected when investigating seismicity in a much larger scale. target dependent source dependent

Conclusions 1.Results from fitting both the Japan and Italy regions show how the clustering characteristics of seismicity vary in space and their connections to the tectonic environments. 2.The weighted likelihood estimator can be used to obtain stable estimates of spatial changes of the ETAS parameters. 3.With complicated seismicity in both regions, the ETAS model with weighted likelihood estimates is potentially powerful for improving earthquake forecast from using a constant ETAS model.
