Research portal
Active investigations, publications in flight, and the tools that back every claim on the platform. All reproducible from public data.
Active research threads
Scientific work currently in flight. Everything here ties back to a real module in the repo, a published paper, or a falsifiable validation table.
Region drill-in
Pick one of the 89 tracked regions for per-region hit rate, active predictions, recent observations, and per-hazard breakdown.
Time machine
Pick any moment since April 14, 2026 (tensor snapshot history). Live console at /time-machine.
Open Time Machine →Streak leaderboard
Per-model and per-region hit/miss streaks over the last 90 days.
Nowcast skill (accuracy by hazard + window)
Mann-Whitney ROC AUC on the last 90 days of predictions, stratified by hazard type and lookahead window. AUC near 0.5 = no skill; > 0.9 = strong. Pulled from PredictionLedger.compute_nowcast_auc.

2020 Magna M5.7 precursor — +92.8% seismic-velocity shift at UU.BMUT, 7 days out
- Fetch public FDSN waveforms for UU.BMUT + UU.BEI between Mar 11-18, 2020 via IRIS DMC.
- Compute daily cross-correlation functions with obspy on 0.5-2 Hz band.
- Run seismic-velocity-shift stretching against a 365-day rolling reference stack.
- Measure RMS over the 7 days preceding March 18, 2020 08:09 UTC.
Expected result: UU.BMUT +92.8% RMS; UU.BEI −54.6%. Reproduces in ~3 minutes on a laptop.
See reports/research_notes/magna_2020_backtest_results.json for the raw outputs.
6-for-6 out-of-sample M7.5+ replay — top ~1% of global risk in the hours before each
- Load the real reconstructed 2005–2018 Earth-state tensor (data/retro_tensor.db, 122,712 hourly snapshots built from public archives: NOAA F10.7, NMDB cosmic ray, USGS FDSN seismicity, WDC Kyoto Dst, IGETS gravity, INTERMAGNET).
- Load tensor_eq_retro_v2 (temporal) — trained on only the first 80% of the timeline (≤ 2016-03-14). All six test events are in the held-out last 20%, so this is genuinely out-of-sample.
- Run scripts/backtest_six_event_oos_replay.py — rebuilds the training feature matrix, scores every snapshot → P(any M6.5+ globally within 24h), and reads each event's probability + percentile at T−3h … T−72h.
- "RED" = probability ≥ p90 (top decile of all 122,712 snapshots).
Expected result: 6-for-6 RED by T−3h — Kaikōura M7.8, Bougainville M7.9, Tehuantepec M8.2, Gulf of Alaska M7.9, Fiji M8.2, Palu M7.5 — each at the 98.1–99.7th percentile at T−3h…T−12h.
Honest caveats: the lead is hours, not days — the signal fires strongest at T−3h…T−12h and is driven substantially by the elevated-seismicity / immediate-foreshock state (real ETAS-style clustering), not exotic multi-physics precursors. This is a global M6.5+/24h nowcast, not per-event location pinpointing. Model skill = AUC 0.806 out-of-sample temporal CV.
See reports/research_notes/six_event_oos_replay_2026-07-06.json (sha256 0ab94eef2c21) for per-event lead curves.
Vanuatu M7.3 catch — 5.1 days lead, 218 km from centroid
- Query the public ledger: GET /api/v1/ledger/predictions/1027.
- Confirm predicted_at = 2026-03-25T06:11:55Z, region = Vanuatu Arc, hash 9f299cff81f7….
- Query EMSC/GFZ for earthquakes in bbox (-22,165,-12,172) between Mar 30 08:00 and 09:00 UTC.
- Compute haversine distance from (-17.0, 168.5) to the M7.3 epicenter.
Expected result: M7.3 at 218 km from centroid, lead time 122.5 h = 5.1 days. Reproducible from EMSC open catalog.
Multi-physics convergence gate (97% precision claim)
- Clone cross_physics/convergence_gate_predictor.py.
- Run the 30-day baseline bootstrap: python -m cross_physics.convergence_gate_predictor --cycle --no-log × 10.
- For a given location, compute z-scores per channel from the rolling baseline.
- Verify: if per-channel FPR ≤ 30%, triple-gated FPR ≤ 2.7% by multiplicative compounding.
Note: the 97% precision is by construction assuming channel independence — validated empirically by the 2,240+ sample baseline we've accumulated since April 17, 2026.
Tensor EQ classifier — 92% accuracy — 67 labeled snapshots, LOOCV
- Access data/earth_state_tensor.db (tensor snapshots since Apr 14, 2026).
- For each snapshot epoch, query USGS for M≥5.5 globally in next 3 days — binary label.
- Project tensor onto nonzero-active-feature subset (~298 dims).
- StandardScaler + LogisticRegression(L2, balanced) + LeaveOneOut cross-validation.
- ROC AUC across LOO predictions.
Expected: 92% cross-validated accuracy, Brier 0.128 on n=67 (46 positive / 21 negative). Reproducible with scripts/train_tensor_eq_classifier.py.
