The vertical profile of the ionosphere density plays a significant role in the development of low-latitude Equatorial Plasma Bubbles (EPBs), that in turn lead to ionospheric scintillation which can severely degrade precision and availability of critical users of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). Accurate estimation of ionospheric delays through vertical electron density profiles is…
In recent years, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have demonstrated their effectiveness in predicting bulk parameters, such as effective diffusion, directly from pore-space geometries. CNNs offer significant computational advantages over traditional methods, making them particularly appealing. However, the current literature primarily focuses on fully saturated porous media, while the parti…
The Hindu Kush-Pamir region (HKPR) is characterized by complex ongoing deformation, unique slab geometry, and intermediate seismic activity. The availability of extensive seismological data in recent decades has prompted the use of deep learning algorithms to extract valuable insights. In this study, we present a fully automated approach for augmenting earthquake catalogue within the HKPR. Our …
In this investigation, the bearing capacity solution of a strip footing in anisotropic clay under inclined and eccentric load is analyzed using the numerical simulation model. The lower and upper bound finite element limit analysis (FELA) approaches are utilized to establish precise modeling and derive the numerical outcomes of a strip footing's bearing capacity. All analyses use effective auto…
Land use and land cover (LULC) changes refer to alterations in land use or physical characteristics. These changes can be caused by human activities, such as urbanization, agriculture, and resource extraction, as well as natural phenomena, for example, erosion and climate change. LULC changes significantly impact ecosystem services, biodiversity, and human welfare. In this study, LULC changes i…
Remote sensing data is a cheap form of surficial geoscientific data, and in terms of veracity, velocity and volume, can sometimes be considered big data. Its spatial and spectral resolution continues to improve over time, and some modern satellites, such as the Copernicus Programme's Sentinel-2 remote sensing satellites, offer a spatial resolution of 10 m across many of their spectral bands. Th…
Deep-learning (DL) algorithms are increasingly used for routine seismic data processing tasks, including seismic event detection and phase arrival picking. Despite many examples of the remarkable performance of existing (i.e., pre-trained) deep-learning detector/picker models, there are still some cases where the direct applications of such models do not generalize well. In such cases, substant…
Evolution in geoscientific data provides the mineral industry with new opportunities. A direction of geochemical data generation evolution is towards big data to meet the demands of data-driven usage scenarios that rely on data velocity. This direction is more significant where traditional geochemical data are not ideal, which is the case for evaluating unconventional resources, such as tailing…
The stratigraphic correlation of well logs plays an essential role in characterizing subsurface reservoirs. However, it suffers from a small amount of training data and expensive computing time. In this work, we propose the Attention Based Dense Network (ASDNet) for the stratigraphic correlation of well logs. To implement the suggested model, we first employ the attention mechanism to the input…
In this study, a deep learning algorithm was applied to two-dimensional magnetotelluric (MT) data inversion. Compared with the traditional linear iterative inversion methods, the MT inversion method based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) does not rely on the selection of the initial model parameters and does not fall into the local optima. Although the CNN inversion models can provide a c…
