We present here a novel image analysis approach to detect and count laminae in geoscientific imagery, called WlCount. Based on Dynamic Time Warping and Wavelet analysis, WlCount firstly aligns persistent vertical elements to increase the continuity of the lamina structure. Then, using a graphical interface, the user extracts the most significant signal frequencies and allows the automatic count of the laminae. The software, tested on a series of stalagmite cut images showing different types of laminations and a tree-ring image, provides an estimation of the laminae detection and count comparable to the manual one. WlCount presents as a useful open-source tool to help geoscientists, sensibly speeding up the lamination count process.","PeriodicalId":10649,"journal":{"name":"Comput.

The paucity of well-labeled training image data has significantly impeded the applications of ML-based approaches, especially the development of novel Deep Learning (DL) methods like Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) in mineral thin section images identification. However, image annotation, especially pixel-wise annotation is always a costly process. Manually creating dense semantic labels for rock thin section images has been long considered as an unprecedented challenge in view of the ubiquitous variety and complexity of minerals in thin sections. To speed up the annotation, we propose a human-computer collaborative pipeline in which superpixel segmentation is used as a boundary extractor to avoid hand delineation of instances boundaries. The pipeline consists of two steps: superpixel segmentation using MultiSLIC, and superpixel labeling through a specific-designed tool. We use a cutting-edge methodology Virtual Petroscopy (ViP) for automatic image acquisition. Bentheimer sandstone sample is used to conduct performance testing of the pipeline. Three standard error metrics are used to evaluate the performance of MultiSLIC. The result indicates that MultiSLIC is able to extract compact superpixels with satisfying boundary adherence given multiple input images. According to our test results, large and complex thin section images with pixel-wisely accurate labels can be annotated with the labeling tool more efficiently than in a conventional, purely manual work, and generate data of high quality.","PeriodicalId":10649,"journal":{"name":"Comput.

We created a toolbox that contains methods and visualization techniques that allow users to interact with the DT. Users can create new composite variables, manually change the variable and threshold to split, manually prune and group variables based on physical meaning. We demonstrate with three case studies that iDT help experts incorporate their knowledge in the DT models achieving higher interpretability and realism in a physical sense.","PeriodicalId":10649,"journal":{"name":"Comput.

Current approaches often rely on: (a) statistical regression models that use measurable watershed attributes, such as area, slope, and stream length; and (b) comparative hydrology that considers watershed characteristics to assess hydrologic similarity to select analogous gauged watersheds as proxies. Newer conceptions regarding hydrologic similarity focus on hydrologic response and therefore emphasize the use of dynamical measures of the stream network and watershed terrain. For example, the width function and hypsometric curve can be readily estimated using the available global digital terrain datasets and represented as functional forms involving a small set of parameters, thus achieving significant data reduction. In this study, a new approach to hydrological similarity in watersheds, one that utilizes these functional forms to identify dynamically similar watersheds, is presented. Dissimilarity matrices are created based on divergence measures, and watersheds are classified using hierarchical clustering. The joint analysis of watershed width functions and hypsometric curves allows for the classification of watersheds into a reduced number of dynamically-similar groups. An illustrative case study for the Narmada River, with 72 sub-watersheds, is presented.","PeriodicalId":10649,"journal":{"name":"Comput.
