Data preprocessing and preparation involve two processes: data cleaning and feature scaling. Several machine learning algorithms, including Linear Regression(LR), Decision Tree(DT), Support Vector Machine(SVM),Random Forest(RF), and Gradient Boosting(GB) for classification, were tested using different iterations and various combinations of features and parameters. The support vector radial kernel training model achieved an accuracy of 72.49% without grid search and 64.02% with grid search, while the blind-well test scores were 71.01% and 69.67%, respectively. The Decision Tree(DT) Hyperparameter Optimization model showed an accuracy of 64.15% for training and 67.45% for testing. In comparison, the Decision Tree coupled with grid search yielded better results, with a training score of 69.91% and a testing score of67.89%. The model's validation was carried out using the blind well validation approach, which achieved an accuracy of 69.81%. Three algorithms were used to generate the gradient-boosting model. During training, the Gradient Boosting classifier achieved an accuracy score of 71.57%, and during testing, it achieved 69.89%. The Grid Search model achieved a higher accuracy score of 72.14% during testing. The Extreme Gradient Boosting model had the lowest accuracy score, with only 66.13% for training and66.12% for testing. For validation, the Gradient Boosting(GB) classifier model achieved an accuracy score of 75.41% on the blind well test, while the Gradient Boosting with Grid Search achieved an accuracy score of 71.36%. The Enhanced Random Forest and Random Forest with Bagging algorithms were the most effective, with validation accuracies of 78.30% and 79.18%, respectively. However, the Random Forest and Random Forest with Grid Search models displayed significant variance between their training and testing scores, indicating the potential for overfitting. Random Forest(RF) and Gradient Boosting(GB) are highly effective for facies classification because they handle complex relationships and provide high predictive accuracy. The choice between the two depends on specific project requirements, including interpretability, computational resources, and data nature.展开更多

Traditional classification methods, such as support vector machines and Gaussian process classifiers, often struggle with the complexity and nonlinearity of geological data, leading to suboptimal performance. Moreover, numerous prevalent approaches fail to adequately consider the inherent dependencies in the sequence of measurements from adjacent depths in a well. A novel approach leveraging an attention-based gated recurrent unit (AGRU) model is introduced in this paper to address these challenges. The AGRU model excels by exploiting the sequential nature of well-log data and capturing long-range dependencies through an attention mechanism. This model enables a flexible and context-dependent weighting of different parts of the sequence, enhancing the discernment of key features for classification. The proposed method was validated on two publicly available datasets. Results demonstrate a considerably improvement over traditional methods. Specifically, the AGRU model achieved superior performance metrics considering precision, recall, and F1-score.展开更多

Compared to subaerial debris flows which have been well studied as a geological hazard, subaqueous debris flows showing complicated sediment composition and sedimentary processes were poorly understood. The main objective of this work is to establish a classification scheme and facies sequence models of subaqueous debris flows for well understanding their sedimentary processes and depositional characteristics.展开更多
