EARTHQUAKE PREDICTION USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN THE FERGHANA DEPRESSION (UZBEKISTAN)

Solving the problem of predicting earthquakes faces difficulties of both theoretical and practical nature. The reason is that the occurrence of earthquakes depends on many factors, which give rise to various anomalies that are used as precursors. However, because of the complexity of the earthquake process and the unavailability of much information about the detailed structure of the Earth's crust, a small number of them can accurately indicate future seismic events. The results of the application of machine learning and deep learning give hope for the possibility of obtaining more accurate information about future strong earthquakes if disparate factors are combined. To determine the most important signs of an earthquake and determine the spatial location of strong earthquakes in a specific seismically active territory of Uzbekistan, namely, in the Fergana depression, the Cora 3, Cora 4, random forest algorithms of machine learning and LSTM, ANN architectures of deep learning were implemented.
