The application of artificial intelligence (AI) is currently being adopted as a state-of-the-art means of automating lithology identification. One aspect of this AI approach is the application of population search algorithms to optimise hyperparameters for enhanced prediction performance. For the first time, Bayesian optimization is deployed to determine the optimal learning parameters for more accurate tree and tree ensemble lithology classifiers. The aim is to rely on the ability of Bayesian optimization to consider previous classification results to improve the output of decision and ensemble tree lithology models using well logs as inputs. The proposed Bayesian optimised decision tree (BODT) generated the best classification accuracy of 89.8% as compared to 86.9%, 83.3% and 81.2% for fine, medium and coarse trees. For the ensembled trees, the Bayesian optimised AdaBoost (BO-AdaBoost) classifier generated the highest improved prediction accuracy of 94.2% while Bayesian optimised Bagged (BO-Bagged) and Bayesian optimised RUSBoost (BO-RUSBoost) had a lower accuracy rate of 94.0% and 77.1% respectively. Additionally, the performance of the Bayesian optimised classifiers offered higher reliability when compared with particle swarm optimization-based artificial neural networks (PSO-ANN). Hence, incorporating Bayesian optimization as a hyperparameter search algorithm will improve litholofacies recognition, leading to a higher accuracy rate and thereby provide an improved alternative for intelligent lithology identification.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":33804,"journal":{"name":"Applied Computing and Geosciences","volume":"16 ","pages":"Article 100100"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590197422000222/pdfft?md5=70b41f43c359f6a72c8f285b2d646140&pid=1-s2.0-S2590197422000222-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48858608","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, traditional methods for the observation of ichthyoliths require considerable time and manual labor, which can hinder their wider application. In this study, we constructed a system to automatically detect ichthyoliths in microscopic images by combining two open source deep learning models. First, the regions for ichthyoliths within the microscopic images are predicted by the instance segmentation model Mask R–CNN. All the detected regions are then re-classified using the image classification model EfficientNet-V2 to determine the classes more accurately. Compared with only using the Mask R–CNN model, the combined system offers significantly higher performance (89.0% precision, 78.6% recall, and an F1 score of 83.5%), demonstrating the utility of the system. Our system can also predict the lengths of the teeth that have been detected, with more than 90% of the predicted lengths being within ±20% of measured length. This system provides a novel, automated, and reliable approach for the detection and length measurement of ichthyoliths from microscope images that can be applied in a range of paleoceanographic and paleoecological contexts.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":33804,"journal":{"name":"Applied Computing and Geosciences","volume":"16 ","pages":"Article 100092"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590197422000143/pdfft?md5=4c5b722dfdb0bf4e0c4d6459e827ee6b&pid=1-s2.0-S2590197422000143-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43365348","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 study uses random forest algorithms to examine the impacts of integrating distinct datasets with complementary characteristics; chemistry to enable compositional distinctions, and photography to enable textural distinctions. We use a random forest classifier to examine the accuracy metrics of models producing rock type classifications using these two data types independently and integrated together. Prediction accuracy, measured using 10-fold cross validation, was 87% for geochemical-only inputs, 85% for photographic-only inputs, and 90% for mixed inputs from both datasets. A mining and exploration project in the Late Miocene to early Pliocene porphyry belt in Chile is the site of this case study, where datasets were systematically acquired using in-field methods on historical drill-cores. Results indicate that classification of lithology is improved by integration of photography-based and composition-based feature inputs. We infer that the benefits of integration would increase in proportion with increasing compositional similarity between rock types.

There is an intermediate state between the two extremities. Partially fractured reservoirs include finite fracture networks (FFN), which are bundles of interconnected fractures embedded in a sea of isolated fractures. Devising measures for sizes of FFNs is crucial in estimating critical engineering aspects such as productivity index, production decline rate and expected ultimate recovery of wells especially in reservoirs with low matrix porosity and permeability. Here, we present results of statistical evaluation of FFN size in relation to fracture connectivity which is in essence the number of fracture intersections per fracture. The analysis is based on a large number of stochastic 2-dimensional (2D) Poisson models of sub-vertical layer bound fractures. Fracture length in the models has log normal or truncated power distribution and fracture strike has circular normal distribution. The models may have single or multiple fracture sets and various truncation modes with different probabilities.</p><p>The analysis shows that number of fracture intersections per fracture can be accurately estimated by a fracture connectivity index, which is defined as product of facture scan-line density, average fracture length and sine of strike standard deviation. The statistically significant finding of this study is that the number of fractures within a FFN is an exponential function of fracture connectivity index. All three fracture properties defining the index can be measured on borehole image logs. Hence it should be possible to estimate fracture connectivity and corresponding FFN size from borehole image data. The analysis pertains to 2D fracture connectivity which is always the lower bound of number of fracture intersections in 3-dimensions. Therefore the exponential relationships must also hold for actual 3-dimensional layer-bound fractures with variable dips.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":33804,"journal":{"name":"Applied Computing and Geosciences","volume":"15 ","pages":"Article 100089"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590197422000118/pdfft?md5=c965145e7845eaea78b57cf39d69d86d&pid=1-s2.0-S2590197422000118-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46065297","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}

Recently, many different approaches have been used for imputation but they are often manual or data set specific. Machine learning has reignited interest in this field with promises of a more generic and simpler approach.
