Automatic Offset Detection in GPS Time Series by Change Point Approach

摘要

This paper deals with the problem of automatic detection of offsets in GPS time series, which is of interest both in active volcanic and tectonic areas, where they often signal either the opening of eruptive fissures or seismic and aseismic dislocations. The problem is tackled by using the Change Point Detection (CPD) approach. Results show that CPD algorithms are suitable both in off-line and on-line frameworks. In particular, we show that CPD algorithms could contribute to the implementation of a warning system of volcanic intrusive activity.
