On the basis of the assumption that ω ^sup 2^ model accords with source displacement spectra of moderate-small shocks, we calculate the apparent stress values of 1 020 moderate-small shocks recorded ...by the Digital Seismic Network of Yunnan Province by using the low-frequency flat level and corner frequencies. The results show that the apparent stress is of good significance in earthquake prediction. The moderate-small shock with apparent stress larger than 0.9 MPa can be used as a referential index to predict moderate-strong earthquakes in Yunnan area. And its relevant predictability evaluation (R value) has a high confidence level.PUBLICATION ABSTRACT
This paper proposes a novel input-output clustering approach for structure identification of T-S fuzzy neural networks. This approach consists of two phases. Firstly, k-means clustering method is ...applied to the input data to provide the initial clusters of the input space. Secondly, check whether the sub-clustering is needed for each input cluster by considering the corresponding output variation and then apply the k-means method to further partition those input clusters needed sub-clustering. Applying the above process recursively leads to the structure identification of a T-S fuzzy neural network and then the parameter identification is completed by using the gradient learning algorithm. The experiments by applying the proposed method to several benchmark problems show better performance compared with many existing methods and then verify the effectiveness and usefulness of the proposed method.
