Supervised machine learning algorithms have been widely used in seismic exploration processing, but the lack of labeled examples complicates its application. Therefore, we propose a seismic labeled data expansion method based on deep variational Autoencoders (VAE), which are made of neural networks and contains two parts-Encoder and Decoder. Lack of training samples leads to overfitting of the …
Rock cuttings from destructive boreholes are a common and cheaper source of drilling materials that can be used to determine underground geology compared to rock core samples. Classifying manually the series of cuttings can be a long and tedious process and can also be prone to subjectivity leading to errors. In this paper, a framework for the classification of multiple types of rock structures…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have made significant advancements in natural language processing and human-like response generation. However, training and fine-tuning an LLM to fit the strict requirements in the scope of academic research, such as geoscience, still requires significant computational resources and human expert alignment to ensure the quality and reliability of the generated conten…
Irrigated rice-field mapping methodologies have been rapidly evolving as a result of advanced remote sensing (RS) technology. However, current methods rely on extensive time-series data and a wide range of multi-spectral bands. These methods often struggle with classification accuracy with contaminated satellite data due to environmental factors or acquisition device constraints, e.g., cloud co…
Maps are crucial tools in geosciences, providing detailed representations of the spatial distribution and relationships among geological features. Accurate recognition and classification of geological objects within these maps are essential for applications in resource exploration, environmental management, and geological hazard assessment. Along the years, many legacy geological maps have been…
Micro-CT, also known as X-ray micro-computed tomography, has emerged as the primary instrument for pore-scale properties study in geological materials. Several studies have used deep learning to achieve super-resolution reconstruction in order to balance the trade-off between resolution of CT images and field of view. Nevertheless, most existing methods only work with single-scale CT scans, ign…
Advancements in high-resolution in-situ analyses have led to the extensive use of mineral diffusion zonings in determining petrologic and orogenic rates. The diffusion simulation, especially in multi-element systems, is numerically complex in practice. To streamline the application, we developed DIFFUSUP, a software featuring a graphic user interface (GUI) that facilitates the numerical simulat…
In the field of geosciences, the integration of artificial intelligence is transitioning from perceptual intelligence to cognitive intelligence. The simultaneous utilization of knowledge and data in the geoscience domain is a universally addressed concern. In this paper, based on the interpretability of deep learning models for rock images, rock features such as structure, texture, mineral and …
Lacustrine shale reservoirs present intricate attributes such as the prevalence of lamination, rapid sedimentary phase transitions, and pronounced heterogeneity. These factors introduce substantial challenges in analyzing and comprehending reservoir characteristics. Thin-section imaging offers a direct medium to observe these traits, yet the intrinsic compromise between image resolution and fie…
Geoscientists use observations and descriptions of the rock record to study the origins and history of our planet, which has resulted in a vast volume of scientific literature. Recent progress in natural language processing (NLP) has the potential to parse through and extract knowledge from unstructured text, but there has, so far, been only limited work on the concepts and vocabularies that ar…
