description | The velocity of seismic data can initially be established by identifying energy clusters on velocity spectra at different moments, which is crucial to the migration imaging and the stacking of common midpoint (CMP) gathers in the seismic data processing. However, the identification of energy clusters currently relies on manual work, with low efficiency and different standards. With the increasing application of wide-frequency, wide-azimuth, and high-density seismic exploration technology, the amount of seismic data has increased significantly, greatly increasing the cost of manual labor and time. In this paper, an intelligent velocity picking method based on the Chan–Vese (CV) model and mean-shift clustering algorithm was proposed. It can be divided into three steps. First, a velocity trend band is set up on the velocity spectrum by experts to avoid multiples and other noises. Then, the velocity trend band is applied to the Chan–Vese model as the initial time condition to segment the velocity spectrum and obtain the velocity candidate region. Finally, mean-shift clustering is adopted to cluster the useful energy clusters retained in the candidate region derived from the Chan–Vese model. When implementing the mean-shift clustering algorithm, the Gaussian kernel function and the energy of the velocity spectrum are utilized to control the efficiency and accuracy of the cluster. The tests of the model and real data prove that the proposed method can dramatically improve the accuracy and efficiency of velocity picking compared with the K-means and manual picking method. |
