<![CDATA[This study delves into the application of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques for the analysis of seismic data, aiming to identify and categorize patterns and anomalies within seismic events. Using a robust dataset, we applied three distinct clustering approaches: K-Means, DBSCAN, and an Autoencoder-based method, each offering unique perspectives on the data. K-Means clustering provided a fundamental partitioning of the data into five predefined clusters, facilitating the identification of broad seismic patterns. DBSCAN, a density-based clustering algorithm, offered insights into the spatial distribution and density of seismic events, adeptly pinpointing anomalies and outliers that signify unusual seismic activity. The Autoencoder, leveraging deep learning, excelled in capturing complex and non-linear relationships within the data, revealing subtle patterns not immediately apparent through traditional methods. The effectiveness of these clustering techniques was quantitatively evaluated using the Silhouette Score and the Davies-Bouldin Score, alongside visual assessments through PCA and t-SNE for dimensionality reduction. The results indicated that while K-Means provided clear partitioning, DBSCAN excelled in outlier detection, and the Autoencoder offered a balanced approach with its nuanced analysis capabilities. Our comprehensive analysis underscores the significance of employing a multi-methodological approach in seismic data analysis, as each method contributes uniquely to the understanding of seismic events. The insights gained from this study are valuable for enhancing predictive models and improving disaster risk management strategies in seismology. Future research directions include the integration of additional seismic features, validation against larger datasets, and the development of hybrid models to further refine the predictive accuracy of seismic event analysis.]]>
