First arrival time picking for microseismic data based on DWSW algorithm

The first arrival time picking is a crucial step in microseismic data processing. When the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is low, however, it is difficult to get the first arrival time accurately with traditional methods. In this paper, we propose the double-sliding-window SW (DWSW) method based on the Shapiro-Wilk (SW) test. The DWSW method is used to detect the first arrival time by making full use of the differences between background noise and effective signals in the statistical properties. Specifically speaking, we obtain the moment corresponding to the maximum as the first arrival time of microseismic data when the statistic of our method reaches its maximum. Hence, in our method, there is no need to select the threshold, which makes the algorithm more facile when the SNR of microseismic data is low. To verify the reliability of the proposed method, a series of experiments is performed on both synthetic and field microseismic data. Our method is compared with the traditional short-time and long-time average (STA/LTA) method, the Akaike information criterion, and the kurtosis method. Analysis results indicate that the accuracy rate of the proposed method is superior to that of the other three methods when the SNR is as low as ??10 dB.

A first arrival picking method of microseismic data based on single time window with window length independent

First arrival picking is a key factor which affects the precision of microseismic data analysis. Here, we propose a new method, which employs the maximum eigenvalue to constraint the Maeda-Akaike Information Criterion (Maeda-AIC) algorithm. First, aims at addressing the pick result affected by signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of microseismic data, maximum eigenvalue method based on polarization analysis is applied, and the maximum eigenvalue is calculated firstly, as for three component (3C) microseismic data, the maximum eigenvalue is calculated with corresponding covariance matrix, a time window need to be set in the process of building the covariance matrix, and it is the only time window set in the method proposed in this paper, so the method is called single window Maeda-AIC (SWM-AIC), to the single component (1C) microseismic data, the variance of the data is taken as the maximum eigenvalue. Then, to reduce the effect of time window and increase the automation of the algorithm, Maeda-AIC method which is a non-window-based first arrival picking method is applied. Maeda-AIC values in preliminary window are calculated, and the preliminary window is the sequence before the largest eigenvalue of the 3C or 1C data. We validate the developed method with both synthetic and field microseismic data, using a range of signal-to-noise ratios. The developed method is compared with some basic methods, specifically STA/LTA, Maeda-AIC, and the maximum eigenvalue method. The results demonstrate that the new method is much better at identifying first arrival times than basic methods when the data have a low signal-to-noise ratio, and is even faster than the STA/LTA method with 1C data. In contrast to other improved methods, threshold value is not required for this method, and the only time window used in this method is just for maximum eigenvalue calculation, through test in the paper, its length has almost no effect on the first arrival picking.     

岩石超声检测信号初至的AIC自动拾取方法

岩石超声检测中最重要的一个环节是初至的拾取,然而该项工作往往费时费力,拾取精度受人为因素影响较大。为提高声波速度检测、声发射定位、以及超声层析成像的应用效率和精度,本研究将地震学中应用比较广泛的AIC初至自动提取技术引入到岩石超声检测中,并进行了适当改进。利用改进前后的AIC方法,自动拾取仿真信号和实际信号的初至,并利用长短时窗比方法(STA/LTA)和手动方法拾取了初至,同时分别与设定的实际初至进行对比。根据实验结果,对于信噪比较低的信号AIC方法要优于STA/LTA方法;改进前的AIC方法适用于起跳干脆、幅度变化大的信号,而改进后的AIC方法则适用于起跳较平缓的信号,且拾取到的初至与手动拾取的初至更加接近。

Earthquake detection in the Jiangsu region,China using graphics-processing-unit-based Match & Locate and rapid earthquake association and location*

Earthquake detection and location are essential in earthquake studies, which generally consists of two main classes: waveform-based and pick-based methods. To evaluate the ability of two different methods, a graphics-processing-unit-based Match & Locate (GPU-M&L) method and a rapid earthquake association and location (REAL) method are applied to continuous seismic data recorded by 24 digital seismic stations from Jiangsu Seismic Network during 2013 for comparison. GPU-M&L is one of waveform-based methods by waveform cross-correlations while REAL is one of pick-based method to associate arrivals of different seismic phases and locate events through counting the number of P and S picks and travel time residuals. Twenty-six templates are selected from the Jiangsu Seismic Network local catalog by using the GPU-M&L. The number of newly detected and located events is about 2.8 times more than those listed in the local catalog. We both utilize a deep-neural-network-based arrival-time picking method called PhaseNet and a short-term/long-term average (STA/LTA) trigger algorithm for seismic phase detection and picking by applying the REAL. We then refine seismic locations using a least-squares location method (VELEST) and a high-precision relative location method (hypoDD). By applying STA/LTA and PhaseNet, 1006 and 1893 events are associated and located, respectively. The newly detected events are mainly clustered and show steeply dipping fault planes. By analyzing the performance of these methods based on long-term continuous seismic data, the detected catalogs by the GPU-M&L and REAL show that the magnitudes of completeness are 1.4 and 0.8, respectively, which are smaller than 2.6 given by the local catalog. Although REAL provides improvement compared with GPU-M&L, REAL is highly dependent on phase detection and picking which is strongly affected by signal-noise ratio (SNR). Stations at southeast of the study region with low SNR may lead to few detections in the same area.

Active Source Seismic Identification and Automatic Picking of the P-wave First Arrival Using a Convolutional Neural Network

In seismic data processing, picking of the P-wave first arrivals takes up plenty of time and labor, and its accuracy plays a key role in imaging seismic structures. Based on the convolution neural network (CNN), we propose a new method to pick up the P-wave first arrivals automatically. Emitted from MINI28 vibroseis in the Jingdezhen seismic experiment, the vertical component of seismic waveforms recorded by EPS 32-bit portable seismometers are used for manually picking up the first arrivals (a total of 7242). Based on these arrivals, we establish the training and testing sets, including 25,290 event samples and 710,616 noise samples (length of each sample:2s). After 3,000 steps of training, we obtain a convergent CNN model, which can automatically classify seismic events and noise samples with high accuracy (> 99%). With the trained CNN model, we scan continuous seismic records and take the maximum output (probability of a seismic event) as the P-wave first arrival time. Compared with STA/LTA (short time average/long time average), our method shows higher precision and stronger anti-noise ability, especially with the low SNR seismic data. This CNN method is of great significance for promoting the intellectualization of seismic data processing, improving the resolution of seismic imaging, and promoting the joint inversion of active and passive sources.
