Most of the existing machine learning studies in logs interpretation do not consider the data distribution discrepancy issue, so the trained model cannot well generalize to the unseen data without calibrating the logs. In this paper, we formulated the geophysical logs calibration problem and give its statistical explanation, and then exhibited an interpretable machine learning method, i.e., Uni…
Mineral exploration campaigns are financially risky. Several state-of-the-art methods have been developed to mitigate the risk, including predictive modelling of mineral prospectivity using principal component analysis (PCA) and geographic information systems (GIS). The PCA and GIS approach is currently considered acceptable for generating mineral exploration targets. However, some of its limit…
Noise suppression is an essential step in many seismic processing workflows. A portion of this noise, particularly in land datasets, presents itself as random noise. In recent years, neural networks have been successfully used to denoise seismic data in a supervised fashion. However, supervised learning always comes with the often unachievable requirement of having noisy-clean data pairs for tr…
Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is a method of data analysis that learns from data, identify patterns and makes predictions with the minimal human intervention. AI is bringing many benefits to petrophysical evaluation. Using case studies, this paper describes several successful applications. The future of AI has even more potential. However, if used carelessly there are potentially grave conseq…
Seismic random noise reduction is an important task in seismic data processing at the Chinese loess plateau area, which benefits the geologic structure interpretation and further reservoir prediction. The sparse inversion is one of the widely used tools for seismic random noise reduction, which is often solved via the sparse approximation with a regularization term. The ℓ1 norm and total vari…
The purpose of this work is to assess the soil fertility for Tulaipanji rice cultivation in Kaliyaganj C.D. Block using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Machine learning algorithms along with the field survey data and GIS. A total of 40 soil samples from Tulaipanji rice fields (from 0 to 40 cm depth) have been randomly collected for the analysis of the soil health condition. For the …
The identification of high-quality marine shale gas reservoirs has always been a key task in the exploration and development stage. However, due to the serious nonlinear relationship between the logging curve response and high-quality reservoirs, the rapid identification of high-quality reservoirs has always been a problem of low accuracy. This study proposes a combination of the oversampling m…
The spatial prediction of a continuous response variable when spatially exhaustive predictor variables are available within the region under study has become ubiquitous in many geoscience fields. The response variable is often subject to detection limits due to limitations of the measuring instrument or the sampling protocol used. Consequently, the response variable's observations are censored …
The utilization of urban underground space in a smart city requires an accurate understanding of the underground structure. As an effective technique, Rayleigh wave exploration can accurately obtain information on the subsurface. In particular, Rayleigh wave dispersion curves can be used to determine the near-surface shear-wave velocity structure. This is a typical multiparameter, high-dimensio…
Residual magnetic error remains after standard levelling process. The weak non-geological effect, manifesting itself as streaky noise along flight lines, creates a challenge for airborne geophysical data processing and interpretation. Microleveling is the process to eliminate this residual noise and is now a standard areogeophysical data processing step. In this paper, we propose a two-step pro…
