This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $452,604 to President and Fellows of Harvard College (Harvard University) to develop a foundational artificial intelligence (AI) model for advanced seismic data analysis. The project aims to revolutionize earthquake science by training the AI model on vast archives of seismic data to identify and characterize earthquake signals using cutting-edge techniques like transformer models. The goal is to improve earthquake detection, localization, and characterization, with potential for broader applications in geophysics. The award period runs from September 15, 2024 to August 31, 2027. The findings, tools, and computational resources from this collaborative research project will be made available to the scientific community through open-source platforms, promoting transparency and facilitating further innovation in earthquake science.
