Removing electromagnetic crosstalk noise from seismic data
One or more first sensors may be configured to sense seismic signals and one or more second sensors may be configured to sense electromagnetic crosstalk signals. The second sensors are not responsive to the seismic signals. The data from the first and second sensors may be recorded as first data and second data, respectively. The first data may be modified based on the second data to remove the electromagnetic crosstalk noise form the seismic data.
ATTENUATION OF INTERFACE WAVES USING SINGLE COMPONENT SEISMIC DATA
Systems and methods for filtering interface waves from single component seismic data are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of filtering seismic data includes comparing amplitude coefficients of a matrix storing the seismic data in a time-frequency domain against an amplitude threshold, and comparing frequencies of the matrix against a maximum expected frequency of noise. The method further includes, for each amplitude coefficient having less than the amplitude threshold and an associated frequency less than the maximum expected frequency of noise, scaling the amplitude coefficient to reduce its value. The method also includes performing an inverse time-frequency transformation on the matrix to generate a noise model in a time domain, and subtracting the noise model from the seismic data in the time domain to generate filtered seismic data.
SEISMIC INTERFERENCE NOISE ATTENUATION USING DNN
Seismic exploration methods and data processing apparatuses employ a deep neural network to remove seismic interference (SI) noise. Training data is generated by combining an SI model extracted using a conventional model from a subset of the seismic data, with SI free shots and simulated random noise. The trained DNN is used to process the entire seismic data thereby generating an image of subsurface formation for detecting presence and/or location of sought-after natural resources.

METHODS AND SYSTEMS TO EVALUATE NOISE CONTENT IN SEISMIC DATA
This disclosure is directed to methods and systems to evaluate noise contend of seismic data received during a marine survey. The seismic data includes pressure and particle motion data generated by collocated pressure and particle motion sensors of a seismic data acquisition system. The pressure and particle motion data are cross ghosted and temporal and spatial wavelet transforms are applied to the cross-ghosted pressure and particle motion data in order to compute pressure energies and particle motion energies in temporal and spatial scales of a temporal and spatial scale domain. The pressure and particle motion energies may be compared to evaluate noise content in the pressure and particle motion data, evaluate changes in the noise content during the marine survey, and adjust marine survey parameters to reduce the noise content.

Machine Learning Techniques for Noise Attenuation in Geophysical Surveys
Techniques are disclosed relating to machine learning in the context of noise filters for sensor data, e.g., as produced by geophysical surveys. In some embodiments, one or more filters are applied to sensor data, such a harsh filter determined to cause a threshold level of distortion in measured reflections, a mild filter determined to leave a threshold level of remaining noise signals, or an acceptable filter. In some embodiments, the system trains a machine learning classifier based on outputs of the filtering procedures and uses the classifier to determine whether other filtered sensor data from the same survey exhibits acceptable filtering. This may improve accuracy or performance in detecting unacceptable filtering, in some embodiments.
