Research Areas
- My research focuses on the application of Machine Learning in seismology, particularly in event clustering and uncovering new seismological discoveries.
- I am also interested in the evolution and physical mechanisms of foreshocks, aftershocks and mainshocks.
- Additionally, I have worked on the earthquake cycles, specifically the simulation of coseismic and postseismic deformation.
