BEPAD — a benchmark dataset for seismic phase association

A phase associator groups the P and S picks of a seismic network into earthquakes. BEPAD gives thousands of association problems built from real earthquakes and real picks (UTDQuake), with the answer for every pick.

One window (Texas network): (a) earthquakes and stations, (b) every pick at its distance from its earthquake, (c) picks by type.

import bepad

test = bepad.load("test", labels=False)          # download the test split from Hugging Face
for w in test:                                   # one window = one association problem
    w.picks, w.stations                          # picks (station, P/S, time) and station coordinates
report = bepad.evaluate(predictions, test)       # score your associator

Share your associator and get on the leaderboard in four commands:

bepad new my-method                                            # template folder
bepad run associators/my-method --split test --out results/my-method
bepad submit results/my-method --code associators/my-method    # opens a Hugging Face pull request
