BEAT - Bayesian Earthquake Analysis Tool
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BEAT is an open-source software tool for the robust characterization of the temporal and spatial evolution of earthquake rupture processes. It uses kinematic rupture models that include low-parametric models like Moment Tensors but also complex high-parametric, finite-extent sources. In other words, BEAT allows studying earthquakes on a first-order level as points with location, size and mechanisms. In consecutive steps, the complexity of the source model may be increased by various details up to the potential to resolve rupture dimension, fault segmentation, slip-distribution and slip-history. The source model parameters and their uncertainties are estimated based on seismic waveforms, and/or geodetic observations like InSAR and GNSS data. Rapid forward modeling is enabled by using pre-computed Green's function databases, handled through the Pyrocko software library. Based on these, synthetic data are provided for arbitrary earthquake rupture models embedded in heterogeneous media. For an extensive exploration of the often high-dimensional model parameter space, BEAT offers a suite of sampling algorithms for high-standard Bayesian inference. The implementations of these sampling algorithms exploit the parallel architecture of modern computers for optimal performance. Finally, BEAT offers easy configuration and automatic visualization of relevant results. The software relies on functionality from PYROCKO (Heimann et al., 2017) and KITE (optionally, Isken et al., 2017).

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
