Low-Frequency Desert Noise Intelligent Suppression in Seismic Data Based on Multiscale Geometric Analysis Convolutional Neural Network

摘要

Existing denoising algorithms often need to meet some premise assumptions and applicable conditions, such as the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) cannot be too low, and the noise needs to obey a specific distribution (such as Gaussian distribution) and to satisfy some properties (such as stationarity). For the desert noise that shares the same frequency band with the effective signal and has complex characteristics (nonlinear, nonstationary, and non-Gaussian), it is difficult to find a universally applicable method. In response to this problem, a multiscale geometric analysis (MGA) convolutional neural network (CNN) is proposed in this article. One of the most important features of the CNN is that it can extract data-rich intrinsic information from the training set without relying on a priori assumption. By introducing the CNN into the MGA, a new kind of denoising method can be created, which can achieve good results even under a low SNR. This article takes the nonsubsampled contourlet transform as an example to create a denoising network named NC-CNN for high-efficiency and intelligent denoising of desert seismic data. The processing results of synthetic seismic records and field seismic records prove that NC-CNN can effectively suppress the low-frequency noise (random noise and surface wave), and the effective signal almost has no energy loss. In addition, the reconstruction ability of the missing signals is also an advantage of this method.
