Abstract
In this paper we present the preliminary results of a study using a deep-learning tool named LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) network, to classify seismic events as near-source and far-source, with the final purpose of developing efficient earthquake early warning systems. We use a similar approach as in [15], applied to a database, named Instance, containing information about 54,008 earthquakes that occurred in Italy. Although these are preliminary results, the method shows a good ability to detect far-source events with an accuracy of about \(67\%\). For near-source events, the method shows an improvable result with an accuracy of \(57\%\).
