Assessment of Arias Intensity of historical earthquakes using modified Mercalli intensities and artificial neural networks

This paper presents the development of a non-parametric forecast model based on artificial neural networks for the direct assessment of Arias Intensity corresponding to a historic earthquake using seismic intensity data. The neural models allow complex and nonlinear behaviour to be tracked. Applicat...
