We developed two machine learning frameworks that could assist in automated litho-stratigraphic interpretation of seismic volumes without any manual hand labeling from an experienced seismic interpreter. The first framework is an unsupervised hierarchical clustering model to divide seismic images from a volume into certain number of clusters determined by the algorithm. The clustering framework uses a combination of density and hierarchical techniques to determine the size and homogeneity of the clusters. The second framework consists of a self-supervised deep learning framework to label regions of geological interest in seismic images. It projects the latent-space of an encoder-decoder architecture unto two orthogonal subspaces, from which it learns to delineate regions of interest in the seismic images. To demonstrate an application of both frameworks, a seismic volume was clustered into various contiguous clusters, from which four clusters were selected based on distinct seismic patterns: horizons, faults, salt domes and chaotic structures. Images from the selected clusters are used to train the encoder-decoder network. The output of the encoder-decoder network is a probability map of the possibility an amplitude reflection event belongs to an interesting geological structure. The structures are delineated using the probability map. The delineated images are further used to post-train a segmentation model to extend our results to full-vertical sections. The results on vertical sections show that we can factorize a seismic volume into its corresponding structural components. Lastly, we showed that our deep learning framework could be modeled as an attribute extractor and we compared our attribute result with various existing attributes in literature and demonstrate competitive performance with them.

Annotating seismic data is expensive, laborious and subjective due to the number of years required for seismic interpreters to attain proficiency in interpretation. In this paper, we develop a framework to automate annotating pixels of a seismic imag e to delineate geological structural elements given image-level labels assigned to each image. Our framework factorizes the latent space of a deep encoder-decoder network by projecting the latent space to learned sub-spaces. Using constraints in the pixel space, the seismic image is further factorized to reveal confidence values on pixels associated with the geological element of interest. Details of the annotated image are provided for analysis and qualitative comparison is made with similar frameworks.
Text style transfer task requires the model to transfer a sentence of one style to another style while retaining its original content meaning, which is a challenging problem that has long suffered from the shortage of parallel data. In this paper, we first propose a semi-supervised text style transfer model that combines the small-scale parallel data with the large-scale nonparallel data. With these two types of training data, we introduce a projection function between the latent space of different styles and design two constraints to train it. We also introduce two other simple but effective semi-supervised methods to compare with. To evaluate the performance of the proposed methods, we build and release a novel style transfer dataset that alters sentences between the style of ancient Chinese poem and the modern Chinese.
Given a reference model that includes all the available variables, projection predictive inference replaces its posterior with a constrained projection including only a subset of all variables. We extend projection predictive inference to enable comp utationally efficient variable and structure selection in models outside the exponential family. By adopting a latent space projection predictive perspective we are able to: 1) propose a unified and general framework to do variable selection in complex models while fully honouring the original model structure, 2) properly identify relevant structure and retain posterior uncertainties from the original model, and 3) provide an improved approach also for non-Gaussian models in the exponential family. We demonstrate the superior performance of our approach by thoroughly testing and comparing it against popular variable selection approaches in a wide range of settings, including realistic data sets. Our results show that our approach successfully recovers relevant terms and model structure in complex models, selecting less variables than competing approaches for realistic datasets.
Noise suppression is an essential step in any seismic processing workflow. 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 i n a supervised fashion. However, supervised learning always comes with the often unachievable requirement of having noisy-clean data pairs for training. Using blind-spot networks, we redefine the denoising task as a self-supervised procedure where the network uses the surrounding noisy samples to estimate the noise-free value of a central sample. Based on the assumption that noise is statistically independent between samples, the network struggles to predict the noise component of the sample due to its randomnicity, whilst the signal component is accurately predicted due to its spatio-temporal coherency. Illustrated on synthetic examples, the blind-spot network is shown to be an efficient denoiser of seismic data contaminated by random noise with minimal damage to the signal; therefore, providing improvements in both the image domain and down-the-line tasks, such as inversion. To conclude the study, the suggested approach is applied to field data and the results are compared with two commonly used random denoising techniques: FX-deconvolution and Curvelet transform. By demonstrating that blind-spot networks are an efficient suppressor of random noise, we believe this is just the beginning of utilising self-supervised learning in seismic applications.
Paleomagnetically useful information is expected to be recorded by samples with moments up to three orders of magnitude below the detection limit of standard superconducting rock magnetometers. Such samples are now detectable using recently developed magnetic microscopes, which map the magnetic fields above room-temperature samples with unprecedented spatial resolutions and field sensitivities. However, realizing this potential requires the development of techniques for retrieving sample moments from magnetic microscopy data. With this goal, we developed a technique for uniquely obtaining the net magnetic moment of geological samples from magnetic microscopy maps of unresolved or nearly unresolved magnetization. This technique is particularly powerful for analyzing small, weakly magnetized samples such as meteoritic chondrules and terrestrial silicate crystals like zircons. We validated this technique by applying it to field maps generated from synthetic sources and also to field maps measured using a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) microscope above geological samples with moments down to 10^-15 Am2. For the most magnetic rock samples, the net moments estimated from the SQUID microscope data are within error of independent moment measurements acquired using lower sensitivity standard rock magnetometers. In addition to its superior moment sensitivity, SQUID microscope net moment magnetometry also enables the identification and isolation of magnetic contamination and background sources, which is critical for improving accuracy in paleomagnetic studies of weakly magnetic rocks.
