About

Research Profile

Professional portrait of Mohammad Hossein Khosravi

I am a PhD Candidate in Geophysics and Seismology at the University of Toronto. My research focuses on applying machine learning and deep learning to microseismic and earthquake monitoring, particularly for seismic event detection, phase picking, phase association, and hypocenter localization.

My background combines geophysics, petroleum engineering, rock physics, seismic inversion, and scientific computing. I work with large-scale seismic datasets and develop scalable workflows using Python, deep-learning frameworks, seismological software, and high-performance computing systems.

My work aims to improve the accuracy, scalability, and reliability of seismic monitoring workflows for induced seismicity and subsurface characterization applications.
