Abstract
Seismic data interpolation, especially irregularly sampled data interpolation, is a critical task for seismic processing and subsequent interpretation. Recently, with the development of machine learning and deep learning, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are applied for interpolating irregularly sampled seismic data. CNN based approaches can address the apparent defects of traditional interpolation methods, such as the low computational efficiency and the difficulty on parameters selection. However, current CNN based methods only consider the temporal and spatial features of irregularly sampled seismic data, which fail to consider the frequency features of seismic data, i.e., the multi-scale features. To overcome these drawbacks, we propose a wavelet-based convolutional block attention deep learning (W-CBADL) network for irregularly sampled seismic data reconstruction. We firstly introduce the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and the inverse wavelet transform (IWT) to the commonly used U-Net by considering the multi-scale features of irregularly sampled seismic data. Moreover, we propose to adopt the convolutional block attention module (CBAM) to precisely restore sampled seismic traces, which could apply the attention to both channel and spatial dimensions. Finally, we adopt the proposed W-CBADL model to synthetic and pre-stack field data to evaluate its validity and effectiveness. The results demonstrate that the proposed W-CBADL model could reconstruct irregularly sampled seismic data more effectively and more efficiently than the state-of-the-art contrastive CNN based models.
