This indicator is heavily influenced by numerous environmental factors, particularly those related to soil and climate, which present a challenging task due to the complex interactions involved. In this paper, we introduce a novel integrated neurosymbolic framework that combines knowledge-based approaches with sensor data for crop-yield prediction. This framework merges predictions from vectors generated by modeling environmental factors using a newly developed ontology focused on key elements and evaluates this ontology using quantitative methods, specifically representation learning techniques, along with predictions derived from remote sensing imagery. We tested our proposed methodology on a public dataset centered on corn, aiming to predict crop-yield. Our developed smart model achieved promising results in terms of crop-yield prediction, with a root mean squared error (RMSE) of 1.72, outperforming the baseline models. The ontology-based approach achieved an RMSE of 1.73, while the remote sensing-based method yielded an RMSE of 1.77. This confirms the superior performance of our proposed approach over those using single modalities. This integrated neurosymbolic approach demonstrates that the fusion of statistical and symbolic artificial intelligence (AI) represents a significant advancement in agricultural applications. It is particularly effective for crop-yield prediction at the field scale, thus facilitating more informed decision-making in advanced agricultural practices. Additionally, it is acknowledged that results might be further improved by incorporating more detailed ontological knowledge and testing the model with higher-resolution imagery to enhance prediction accuracy.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100124,"journal":{"name":"Artificial Intelligence in Geosciences","volume":"6 1","pages":"Article 100125"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144195736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the iterative approaches typically employed in sparse TF transforms are computationally intensive, making them impractical for real seismic data analysis. To address this issue, we propose an interpretable convolutional sparse coding (CSC) network to achieve high TF resolution. The proposed model is generated based on the traditional short-time Fourier transform (STFT) transform and a modified UNet, named ULISTANet. In this design, we replace the conventional convolutional layers of the UNet with learnable iterative shrinkage thresholding algorithm (LISTA) blocks, a specialized form of CSC. The LISTA block, which evolves from the traditional iterative shrinkage thresholding algorithm (ISTA), is optimized for extracting sparse features more effectively. Furthermore, we create a synthetic dataset featuring complex frequency-modulated signals to train ULISTANet. Finally, the proposed method's performance is subsequently validated using both synthetic and field data, demonstrating its potential for enhanced seismic data analysis.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100124,"journal":{"name":"Artificial Intelligence in Geosciences","volume":"6 1","pages":"Article 100104"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142661128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the use of AI and AI agents to help automate RS-related tasks is still in its infancy stage, with some frameworks and interfaces built on top of well-known vision language models (VLM) such as GPT-4, segment anything model (SAM), and grounding DINO. These tools do promise and draw guidelines on the potentials and limitations of existing solutions concerning the use of said models. In this work, the state of the art AI foundation models (FM) are reviewed and used in a multi-modal manner to ingest RS imagery input and perform zero-shot object detection using natural language. The natural language input is then used to define the classes or labels the model should look for, then, both inputs are fed to the pipeline. The pipeline presented in this work makes up for the shortcomings of the general knowledge FMs by stacking pre-processing and post-processing applications on top of the FMs; these applications include tiling to produce uniform patches of the original image for faster detection, outlier rejection of redundant bounding boxes using statistical and machine learning methods.

Recently, deep learning algorithms exhibit a powerful capability of detecting and picking on P- and S-wave phases. However, it remains a challenge to effeciently process enormous teleseismic phases, which are crucial to probe Earth's interior structures and their dynamics. In this study, we propose a scheme to detect and pick teleseismic phases, such as seismic phase that reflects off the core-mantle boundary (i.e., PcP) and that reflects off the inner-core boundary (i.e., PKiKP), from a seismic dataset in Japan. The scheme consists of three steps: 1) latent phase traces are truncated from the whole seismogram with theoretical arrival times; 2) latent phases are recognized and evaluated by convolutional neural network (CNN) models; 3) arrivals of good or fair phase are picked with another CNN models. The testing detection result on 7386 seismograms shows that the scheme recognizes 92.15% and 94.13% of PcP and PKiKP phases. The testing picking result has a mean absolute error of 0.0742 s and 0.0636 s for the PcP and PKiKP phases, respectively.

ROP decreases drilling time and costs and increases rig productivity. This study employs random forest (RF), gradient boosting modeling (GBM), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), and adaptive boosting (Adaboost) models to generate ROP predictions. The models use well data from a 3200-m segment across the stratigraphic column (Dibdibba to Zubair formations) of the large West Qurna oil field in Southern Iraq, penetrating 19 formations and four oil reservoirs. The reservoir sections are between 40 and 440 m thick and consist of both carbonate and clastic lithologies. The ROP predictive models were developed using 14 operational parameters: TVD, weight on bit (WOB), torque, effective circulating density (ECD), drilling rotation per minute (RPM), flow rate, standpipe pressure (SPP), bit size, total RPM, D exponent, gamma ray (GR), density, neutron, caliper, and discrete lithology distribution. Training and validation of the ROP models involves data compiled from three development wells. Applying Random subsampling, the compiled dataset was split into 85 % for training and 15 % for validation and testing. The test subgroup's measured and predicted ROP mismatch was assessed using root mean square error (RMSE) and coefficient of correlation (R²). The RF, GBM, and XGBoost models provide ROP predictions versus depth with low errors. Models with cross-validation that integrate data from three wells deliver more accurate ROP predictions than datasets from single well. The input variables' influences on ROP optimization identify the optimal value ranges for 14 operating parameters that help to increase drilling speed and reduce cost.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100124,"journal":{"name":"Artificial Intelligence in Geosciences","volume":"6 1","pages":"Article 100121"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143936979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional seismic data often lack both high and low frequencies, which are essential for detailed geological interpretation and various geophysical applications.

Conventional methods for bandwidth extension include seismic deconvolution and sparse inversion, which have limitations in recovering low frequencies. The study explores the potential of the U-net, which has been successful in other geophysical applications such as noise attenuation and seismic resolution enhancement. The novelty in our approach is that we do not rely on computationally expensive finite difference modelling to create training data. Instead, our synthetic training data is created from individual randomly perturbed events with variations in bandwidth, making it more adaptable to different data sets compared to previous deep learning methods. The method was tested on both synthetic and real seismic data, demonstrating effective low frequency reconstruction and sidelobe reduction. With a synthetic full waveform inversion to recover a velocity model and a seismic amplitude inversion to estimate acoustic impedance we demonstrate the validity and benefit of the proposed method.

Various deterministic methods based on Wiener filtering exist to increase the temporal frequency bandwidth and compress the seismic wavelet in a process called spectral shaping. Auto-encoder neural networks with convolutional layers have been applied to this problem, with encouraging results, but the problem of generalization to unseen data remains. Most published works have used supervised learning with training data constructed from field seismic data or synthetic seismic data generated based on measured well logs or based on seismic wavefield modelling. This leads to satisfactory results on datasets similar to the training data but requires re-training of the networks for unseen data with different characteristics. In this work seek to improve the generalization, not by experimenting with network architecture (we use a conventional U-net with some small modifications), but by adopting a different approach to creating the training data for the supervised learning process. Although the network is important, at this stage of development we see more improvement in prediction results by altering the design of the training data than by architectural changes. The approach we take is to create synthetic training data consisting of simple geometric shapes convolved with a seismic wavelet. We created a very diverse training dataset consisting of 9000 seismic images with between 5 and 300 seismic events resembling seismic reflections that have geophysically motived perturbations in terms of shape and character. The 2D U-net we have trained can boost robustly and recursively the dominant frequency by 50%. We demonstrate this on unseen field data with different bandwidths and signal-to-noise ratios. Additionally, this 2D U-net can handle non-stationary wavelets and overlapping events of different bandwidth without creating excessive ringing. It is also robust in the presence of noise. The significance of this result is that it simplifies the effort of bandwidth extension and demonstrates the usefulness of auto-encoder neural network for geophysical data processing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100124,"journal":{"name":"Artificial Intelligence in Geosciences","volume":"5 ","pages":"Article 100071"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666544124000121/pdfft?md5=c77a55aa6f15caf05f55e0608bb383f7&pid=1-s2.0-S2666544124000121-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139738330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research aims to compare the combinations of inventory data handling, cross validation (CV), and hyperparameter tuning strategies to generate landslide susceptibility maps. The results are expected to provide a general strategy for landslide susceptibility modeling using ML techniques. The authors employed eight landslide inventory data handling scenarios to convert a landslide polygon into a landslide point, i.e., the landslide point is located on the toe (minimum height), on the scarp (maximum height), at the center of the landslide, randomly inside the polygon (1 point), randomly inside the polygon (3 points), randomly inside the polygon (5 points), randomly inside the polygon (10 points), and 15 m grid sampling. Random forest models using CV–nonspatial hyperparameter tuning, spatial CV–spatial hyperparameter tuning, and spatial CV–forward feature selection–no hyperparameter tuning were applied for each data handling strategy. The combination generated 24 random forest ML workflows, which are applied using a complete inventory of 743 landslides triggered by Tropical Cyclone Cempaka (2017) in Pacitan Regency, Indonesia, and 11 landslide controlling factors. The results show that grid sampling with spatial CV and spatial hyperparameter tuning is favorable because the strategy can minimize overfitting, generate a relatively high-performance predictive model, and reduce the appearance of susceptibility artifacts in the landslide area.
