Edge-aware filtering with Siamese neural networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Recent demands to reduce turnaround times and expedite investment decisions in seismic exploration have invited new ways to process and interpret seismic data. Among these ways is a more integrated collaboration between seismic processors and geologist interpreters aiming to build preliminary geologic models for early business impact. A key aspect has been quick and streamlined delivery of clean high-fidelity 3D seismic images via postmigration filtering capabilities. We present a machine learning-based example of such a capability built on recent advances in deep learning systems. In particular, we leverage the power of Siamese neural networks, a new class of neural networks that is powerful at learning discriminative features. Our novel adaptation, edge-aware filtering, employs a deep Siamese network that ranks similarity between seismic image patches. Once the network is trained, we capitalize on the learned features and self-similarity property of seismic images to achieve within-image stacking power endowed with edge awareness. The method generalizes well to new data sets due to the few-shot learning ability of Siamese networks. Furthermore, the learning-based framework can be extended to a variety of noise types in 3D seismic data. Using a convolutional architecture, we demonstrate on three field data sets that the learned representations lead to superior filtering performance compared to structure-oriented filtering. We examine both filtering quality and ease of application in our analysis. Then, we discuss the potential of edge-aware filtering as a data conditioning tool for rapid structural interpretation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
