Seismic random noise suppression using improved CycleGAN
Abstract
Random noise adversely affects the signal-to-noise ratio of complex seismic signals in complex surface conditions and media. The primary challenges related to processing seismic data have always been reducing the random noise and increasing the signal-to-noise ratio. In this study, we propose an improved cycle-consistent generative adversarial network (CycleGAN) seismic random noise suppression method. First, the generator replaces the original cycle-consistent generative adversarial network generator network structure with the Unet structure combined with the Resnet structure in order to increase the diversity of seismic data feature extraction and decrease the loss of seismic data details. Second, in order to improve the network’s stability, the feature extraction effect, the event texture preservation effect, and the signal-to-noise ratio, the Least Square GAN (LSGAN) square difference loss is used in place of the conventional generative adversarial network cross-entropy loss. The feasibility of the proposed method was confirmed using model and real seismic data, both of which demonstrated that the improved cycle-consistent generative adversarial network method effectively suppressed random noise in seismic data. In addition, the denoising effect was superior to both the widely used FX deconvolution denoising method and original cycle-consistent generative adversarial network denoising method.
