In this article, we present a new data collection that combines information about earthquake damage with seismic shaking. Starting from the Da.D.O. database, which provides information on the damage of individual buildings subjected to sequences of past earthquakes in Italy, we have generated ShakeMaps for all the events with magnitude greater than 5.0 that have contributed to these sequences. …
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 …
Machine learning is becoming increasingly important in scientific and technological progress, due to its ability to create models that describe complex data and generalize well. The wealth of publicly-available seismic data nowadays requires automated, fast, and reliable tools to carry out a multitude of tasks, such as the detection of small, local earthquakes in areas characterized by sparsity…
Regression random forest is becoming a widely-used machine learning technique for spatial prediction that shows competitive prediction performance in various geoscience fields. Like other popular machine learning methods for spatial prediction, regression random forest does not exactly honor the response variable’s measured values at sampled locations. However, competitor methods such as regr…
Fault interpretation plays a critical role in understanding the crustal development and exploring the subsurface reservoirs such as gas and oil. Recently, significant advances have been made towards fault semantic segmentation using deep learning. However, few studies employ deep learning in fault instance segmentation. We introduce mask propagation neural network for fault instance segmentatio…
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…
In this study, we evaluated six machine learning models for their skill in predicting the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD). The results based on the IOD index predictions at 1–8 month lead time indicate that the AdaBoost model with Multi-Layer Perceptron as the base estimator, AdaBoost(MLP), to perform better than the other five models in predicting the IOD index at all lead times. Interestingly, th…
This paper presents a framework for semantic segmentation of satellite imagery aimed at studying atoll morphometrics. Recent advances in deep neural networks for automated segmentation have been valuable across a variety of satellite and aerial imagery applications, such as land cover classification, mineral characterization, and disaster impact assessment. However, identifying an appropriate s…
A common limitation in applying any deep learning and machine learning techniques is the limited labelled dataset which can be addressed through Data augmentation (DA). SeisAug is a DA python toolkit to address this challenge in seismological studies. DA. DA helps to balance the imbalanced classes of a dataset by creating more examples of under-represented classes. It significantly mitigates ov…
