stat157 analyzers

Horizontal group for stat157 producers (analyzers).

Background

We're trying to predict earthquakes. There are two models: MDA (Magnitude-Dependent Alarms) and ETAS (Epidemic-Type Aftershock Sequence). Learn more about them in the resources section. We want to improve the simple MDA model to perform better than the complicated ETAS model. This is part of a collaborative term project for UC Berkeley's stat157 class. Poke around the stat157 repos to see the work done by other groups.

Summary

• images: screenshots from office hours/classes/meetings
• notes: notes from office hours/classes/meetings
• resources: other things we might need, including implementations in other languages, Luen's paper, etc.
• MDA_model: code/resources related to the Magnitude Dependent Alarm Model
• notebooks: IPython Notebooks

Highlights

Check out our:

• Reproducible vagrant box!
• MDA skeleton code - run it in IPython Notebook using the VM from above
• Progress in plotting aftershock arrival times to find a better function for the MDA model
