Abstract

Sulawesi is a region in Indonesia known for its significant seismic activity, and its history of impactful earthquakes makes it an area of crucial importance for in-depth analysis. This study analyses earthquake occurrence data in the Sulawesi region from 2019 to 2023 using clustering methods with the DBSCAN algorithm. The utilization of the DBSCAN algorithm was chosen for its ability to cluster data based on spatial density, well-suited for analyzing the spatial patterns of earthquakes. DBSCAN is known for its effectiveness in identifying spatial clusters, especially in handling data with undefined density patterns. The primary aim of this research is to identify spatial earthquake occurrence patterns, classify regions with similar earthquake occurrence rates, describe the characteristics of the resulting spatial clusters, and identify seismic gap areas. The results of analysis and clustering using the DBSCAN algorithm have identified clusters with earthquake depth characteristics, which are expected to make a significant contribution to mapping and understanding earthquake vulnerability and distribution in this region. These findings can aid in more effective disaster mitigation planning, support sustainable development efforts, and enhance earthquake preparedness and response in Sulawesi. This study contributes to a better understanding of earthquake patterns and potential seismic gaps in Sulawesi, which is crucial for developing improved risk mitigation strategies and supporting sustainable development policies.

Abstract

This study addresses the challenge of accurately clustering earthquake events based on depth to better understand seismic activity patterns in Sulawesi from 2019 to 2023. Traditional clustering algorithms often fail to capture the complex spatial and depth-based structures of earthquake data. To overcome this, we employed the DBSCAN algorithm, which is well-suited for identifying irregularly shaped clusters and handling noise in spatial datasets. A key focus of this research is the systematic optimization of DBSCAN’s parameters—epsilon (ε) and minimum samples (min_samples)—using a grid search approach. Epsilon values varied from 0.1 to 0.5, and min_samples ranged from 6 to 60. The optimal parameters, determined using the Calinski-Harabasz (CH) index, were ε = 0.4 and min_samples = 54. Compared with previous heuristic settings, the optimized configuration produced better separated and more interpretable clusters. Using the optimized parameters, nine distinct clusters were identified, capturing meaningful patterns in both depth and magnitude. The results revealed that shallow earthquakes (0–20 km) tend to exhibit greater magnitude variation, with some clusters averaging magnitudes up to 3.7. This suggests a higher seismic hazard potential associated with brittle crustal activity. The findings contribute to seismic hazard analysis by providing a more robust understanding of three-dimensional earthquake distribution, aiding regional risk assessment and disaster preparedness efforts. These insights can support agencies such as BMKG and BPBD in hazard mapping, sensor deployment, and contingency planning for high-risk zones.
