We examine the plausibility of using an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and an Importance-Aided Neural Network (IANN) for the refinement of the structural model used to create full-wave tomography images. Specifically, we apply the machine learning techniques to classifying segments of observed data wave seismograms and synthetic data wave seismograms as either usable for iteratively refining the structural model or not usable for refinement. Segments of observed and synthetic seismograms are considered usable if they are not too different, a heuristic observation made by a human expert, which is considered a match. The use of the ANN and the IANN for classification of the data wave segments removes the human computational cost of the classification process and removes the need for an expert to oversee all such classifications. Our experiments on the seismic data for Southern California have shown this technique to be promising for both classification accuracy and the reduction of the time required to compute the classification of observed data wave segment and synthetic data wave segment matches.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
