摘要

Earthquake prediction practice and a large number of earthquake cases show that anomalous images of small earthquake belts may appear near the epicenter before strong earthquakes.Through the research of earthquake cases,researchers have a relatively consistent method to determine the clarity of an identified seismic belt,but there is still a lack of method on seismic belt identification from the distribution of scattered points.Due to the complexity of exhaustive algorithm,the rapid automatic identification technique of seismic belts has been progressing slowly.Visual recognition is still the basic method of seismic belt identification.Based on the algorithm of distance correlation,this paper presents a fast automatic identification method of seismic belts.The effectiveness of this method was proved by 100 random earthquakes and an example of seismic belts of magnitude 4.0 before the 2005 Jiujiang M5.7 earthquake.The results show that: ① the automatic identification of seismic belts should first identify the "relational earthquake",then identify the "suspected seismic belt",and finally use the criterion of seismic belt clarity to determine;② random earthquakes and real earthquakes identification results show that the distance correlation method can realize the fast automatic identification of seismic belts by computer.
