Self-Supervised Learning Tested on Real Seismic Data Denoising

other · 2026-05-13

A study evaluated the Noisy-as-Clean (NaC) self-supervised learning method for denoising real seismic data. Two independent seismic acquisitions, each with noisy and filtered data, formed four real datasets. The NaC method was adapted to add real noise controlled by a parameter. Ten experiments compared NaC SSL against supervised learning using identical network topology and hyperparameters. Results showed synthetic additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) is inadequate for seismic data denoising.
