About
Program Overview
In response to the pressing demand for expertise in advanced fields such as earthquake geology, tectonic geodesy, and AI-driven geoscience, CRESCENT will sponsor a series of technical short courses to help train the next generation of geoscientists. These courses will employ modern pedagogy and focus on widely employed research techniques in subduction zone geoscience with practical applications.

Machine Learning: Building Earthquake Catalogs
This three-day short course provides a hands-on introduction to machine learning techniques for seismic event analysis. Participants will learn to develop AI-aided earthquake catalogs through three key steps: event detection, association, and location with quality control. The course covers neural network architecture selection, model training, performance metrics, and application to continuous seismic data. The workshop will include a mix of presentations and hands-on tutorials.
