Studying the changes in seismicity, and the potential of the occurrences of large earthquakes in a seismic zone is not only extremely important from the aspect of seismological research, but it is additionally significant in the decisions of crisis management. Since, nowadays Machine learning techniques have proven the high ability for analyzing information, and discovering the relations among …
Inferring underground porosity and evaluating its spatial distribution is of great significance in a wide range of Earth sciences and engineering, including hydrocarbon reservoir characterization and geothermal energy exploitation. Popular methods are largely based on the analysis of lithological cores, well logs, and seismic inversion. These methods are reliable, but they are still time-consum…
Accurately defining and isolating 3D tree space is critical for extracting and analyzing tree inventory attributes, yet it remains a challenge due to the structural complexity and heterogeneity within natural forests. This study introduces TreeisoNet, a suite of supervised deep neural networks tailored for robust 3D tree segmentation across natural forest environments. These networks are specif…
Deep learning and particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) in concert with remote sensing are becoming standard analytical tools in the geosciences. A series of studies has presented the seemingly outstanding performance of CNN for predictive modelling. However, the predictive performance of such models is commonly estimated using random cross-validation, which does not account for spat…
Deep learning methods based on convolutional neural networks have shown to give excellent results in semantic segmentation of images, but the inherent irregularity of point cloud data complicates their usage in semantically segmenting 3D laser scanning data. To overcome this problem, point cloud networks particularly specialized for the purpose have been implemented since 2017 but finding the m…
