Short summary
Earthquakes are among the most disastrous natural calamities due to the release of accumulated strain energy from continuous tectonic movements. They have the potential to cause havoc in terms of both economic losses and loss of life. This paper presents a methodology to predict earthquakes in terms of seismic energy release globally using an ensemble machine learning technique, and then the approach is tested for one of the most seismically active regions of the world: the Western Himalayas.
