Transformer model SeismoGPT forecasts seismic waveforms with high accuracy

Researchers have developed SeismoGPT, a transformer-based model designed to forecast seismic waveforms. This model operates autoregressively in the time domain, continuing waveform data beyond observed seismic arrivals. SeismoGPT achieved high accuracy, with median normalized cross-correlation above 0.93, demonstrating its ability to maintain phase coherence and spectral energy distribution. The findings suggest that foundation models can be applied to physics-driven time-series forecasting, with potential uses in seismic warning and hazard mitigation, particularly for advanced gravitational-wave observatories.

    Data-Driven Forecasting of three-Component Seismograms Using Transformer Architectures

    arXiv:2606.02912v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Forecasting seismic waveforms beyond observed data remains challenging due to the nonlinear, dispersive, and multi-scale nature of seismic wave propagation. In this work, we introduce \textsc{SeismoGPT}, a transformer-based autore…
