A Denoising Method for Seismic Data Based on SVD and Deep Learning

When reconstructing seismic data, the traditional singular value decomposition (SVD) denoising method has the challenge of difficult rank selection. Therefore, we propose a seismic data denoising method that combines SVD and deep learning. In this method, seismic data with different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) are processed by SVD. Data sets are created from the decomposed right singular vectors and data sets divided into two categories: effective signal and noise. The lightweight MobileNetV2 network was chosen for training because of its quick response speed and great accuracy. We forecasted and categorized the right singular vectors by SVD using the trained MobileNetV2 network. The right singular vector (RSV) corresponding to the noise in the seismic data was removed during reconstruction, but the effective signal was kept. The effective signal was projected to smooth the RSV. Finally, the goal of low SNR denoising of two-dimensional seismic data was accomplished. This approach addresses issues with deep learning in seismic data processing, including the challenge of gathering sample data and the weak generalizability of the training model. Compared with the traditional denoising method, the improved denoising method performs well at removing Gaussian and irregular noise with strong amplitudes.
