Computer vision in geoscience: recover seismic data from images – part 2
In part 1 of this short series I demonstrated how to detect the portion occupied by the seismic section in an image (Figure 1). The result was a single binary […]
Computer vision in geoscience: recover seismic data from images – part 1
As anticipated in the introductory post of this short series I am going to demonstrate how to automatically detect where a seismic section is located in an image (be it […]
What is acquisition footprint noise in seismic data?
Acquisition footprint is a noise field that appears on 3D seismic amplitude slices or horizons as an interwoven linear crosshatching parallel to the source line and receiver line directions. It […]
Computer vision in geoscience: recover seismic data from images, introduction
In a recent post titled Unweaving the rainbow, Matt Hall described our joint attempt (partly successful) to create a Python tool to enable recovery of digital data from any pseudo-colour scientific […]
Mild or wild: robustness through morphological filtering
This guest post (first published here) is by Elwyn Galloway, author of Scibbatical on WordPress. It is the forth in our series of collaborative articles about sketch2model, a project from the 2015 Calgary Geoscience Hackathon organized […]
Machine Learning in Geoscience with Scikit-learn. Part 2: inferential statistics and domain knowledge to select features for oil prediction
In the first post of this series I showed how to use Pandas, Seaborn, and Matplotlib to: load a dataset test, clean up, and summarize the data start looking for relationships between variables […]
Python, Einstein, and the discovery of Gravitational Waves at PyCon Italia
Introduction At 11:53 am of September 14 2015, Marco Drago, an Italian postdoctoral scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (AKA Albert Einstein Institute) in Hannover, Germany, was the first person to see it: the […]
