Monogenic signal decomposition: A new approach to enhance magnetic data
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The magnetic method is well-known as one of the most powerful tools used to map concealed geological structures especially those associated with magnetic crystalline basements. Crystalline basements play an important role for oil and gas exploration in sedimentary basins because they influence the geology of the overlying sedimentary rocks and subsequently the formation of their oil and gas plays. Magnetic data from sedimentary structures are in general characterized by their low susceptibility contrast and poor signal-to-noise ratio and it is often challenging to extract subtle geological features from these data. Therefore, image enhancement techniques are very vital for extracting optimum geological and structural information from magnetic data. In this abstract, a new magnetic image enhancement approach is proposed. This approach is based on a recently developed digital processing technique known as monogenic signal decomposition. This new technique is able to decompose 2D magnetic signals into three primary attributes (amplitude, phase and orientation) and two secondary attributes (directional Hilbert and Riesz transforms). Although many magnetic attributes have been utilized to map subtle geologic features, these five particular attributes appear to add more valuable information to magnetic data interpretation. The aim of this study is therefore to explore the monogenic signal decomposition approach as an alternative technique to extract geological and structural information from magnetic data. This abstract describes the rotation-invariant monogenic signal decomposition and demonstrates its use in enhancing magnetic data. The monogenic signal decomposition technique was first tested on the total magnetic intensity (TMI) grid of a synthetic magnetic data and after obtaining satisfactory results the technique was applied to field magnetic data. The synthetic magnetic data was derived from Bishop 3D magnetic model whereas the actual field data was derived from an aeromagnetic survey flown over the Peace River Arch structure of Western Canada Sedimentary Basin (WCSB). The results obtained from the synthetic and field data indicate that the proposed approach has excellent performance in extracting structural features especially geological boundaries, faults and fractures from the data. Furthermore, it appears that this new approach is superior in enhancing structural features in aeromagnetic data than conventional enhancing techniques such as the horizontal and total gradient methods.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
