Abstract
Abstract Located at the northwestern syntaxis of the India‐Asia convergence zone, the Pamir orogen is characterized by complicated and strong active deformation. Constraining the detailed geometry and kinematics of major active structures is important both for understanding modern tectonic processes and for evaluating potential seismic hazards of the region. Our work focuses on the Muji Fault in the northeastern Pamir. Based on cumulative deformation recorded by landforms and coseismic deformation during the 2016 M w 6.6 Aketao earthquake, we determine the spatial extent, slip motion, fault‐plane geometry, and slip rate of the fault, on the basis of which we clarify its role in the modern tectonics of the Pamir and investigate its seismic behavior and associated seismic hazards. Our study indicates that (i) the Muji Fault, along with the Kongur Extensional System to its south, acts as a boundary fault that accommodates a relative divergence rate of 1.4–2.0°/Ma between the central‐western and eastern Pamir; (ii) geometric discontinuities along the fault exerted an important control on seismic rupture termination and slip gap formation during the Aketao earthquake; and (iii) the cumulative surface‐faulting deformation cannot be formed coseismically by repetitions of the Aketao earthquake, implying significant aseismic (postseismic and/or interseismic) creeping or possibly larger (approximately M w 7.2), surface‐faulting earthquakes. Our study highlights the usefulness of correlating cumulative and coseismic deformation patterns in active tectonic investigations and regional seismic hazard evaluations.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
