The architecture relies on sensors, edge and fog resources to detect earthquakes and broadcast alerts.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">As categorizing medium earthquakes is not done well by GPS, and categorizing large earthquakes is not done well by seismometers, the paper proposes a predictive model that combines these measurements using machine learning techniques to improve the accuracy of Earthquake Early Warning systems. Specifically, the authors proposed a Distributed Multi-Sensor system that combines data from both types of sensors (GPS stations and seismometers) to detect medium and large earthquakes at scale.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Evaluations on real-world earthquake datasets have shown to be more accurate than their baseline while being robust to infrastructure failures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">The project is based on an interdisciplinary research collaboration between RDI2, the INRIA Large-Scale Collaborative Data Mining (LACODAM) team in France, and Univ. of Oregon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Preprint: <a href=\"https:\/\/hal.archives-ouvertes.fr\/hal-02373429\/document\">https:\/\/hal.archives-ouvertes.fr\/hal-02373429\/document<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our paper entitled \u201cA Distributed Multi-Sensor Machine Learning Approach to Earthquake Early Warning\u201d was selected in the Artificial Intelligence for Social Impact track at AAAI-20.
