The detection of seismic signals is vital in seismic data processing and analysis. Many algorithms have been proposed to resolve this issue, such as the ratio of short-term and long-term power averages (STA/LTA), F detector, Generalize F, and etc. However, the detection performance will be affected by the noise signals severely. In this paper, we propose a novel seismic signal detection method based on the historical waveform features to improve the seismic signals detection performance and reduce the affection from the noise signals. We use the historical events location information in a specific area and waveform features information to build the joint probability model. For the new signal from this area, we can determine whether it is the seismic signal according to the value of the joint probability. The waveform features used to construct the model include the average spectral energy on a specific frequency band, the energy of the component obtained by decomposing the signal through empirical mode decomposition (EMD), and the peak and the ratio of STA/LTA trace. We use the Gaussian process (GP) to build each feature model and finally get a multi-features joint probability model. The historical events location information is used as the kernel of the GP, and the historical waveform features are used to train the hyperparameters of GP. The beamforming data of the seismic array KSRS of International Monitoring System are used to train and test the model. The testing results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
The purpose of seismic data processing in nuclear explosion monitoring is to accurately and reliably detect seismic or explosion events from complex ambient noises. Accurate detection and identification of seismic phases are of great significance to the detection and parameter estimation of seismic events. In seismic phase identification, discriminating between noise signals and real seismic signals is essential. Accurate identification of noise signals helps reduce false detections, improves the accuracy of automatic bulletins, and relieves the workload of analysts. At the same time, in seismic exploration, the prime objective in data processing is also to enhance the signal and suppress the noises. In this study, we combined a generative adversarial network (GAN) with a long short-term memory network (LSTM) to discriminate between noise and phases in seismic waveforms recorded by the International Monitoring System (IMS) array MKAR. First, using the beamforming data of the array as the input, we obtained the signal features of seismic phases through the learning of the GAN discriminator network. Then, we input these features and trained the joint network on mixed seismic phase and noise data, and successfully classified seismic phases and noise signals with a recall of 95.28% and 97.64%, respectively. Based on this model, we established a real-time data processing method, then validated the effectiveness of this method with real 2019 data of MKAR. We also verified whether improved noise signal identification improves the quality of phase association and event detection.
