Deep Earthquake Source Time Functions Using Variational Symmetric Autoencoders

​​​​​​​

Variational Symmetric Autoencoders

While conventional methods typically employ convolutional models to differentiate source and path effects, our approach relies on Symmetric Autoencoding (SymAE). SymAE enables us to examine the spatial patterns in earthquake data and effectively separate slow-scale source effects from fast-scale path effects. This separation helps us to determine earthquake source time functions more accurately, without being influenced by path effects.
