Estimation of groundwater storage from seismic data using deep learning
We investigate the feasibility of the use of convolutional neural networks to estimate the amount of groundwater stored in the aquifer and delineate water-table level from active-source seismic data. The seismic data to train and test the neural networks are obtained by solving wave propagation in a coupled poroviscoelastic-elastic media. A discontinuous Galerkin method is used to model wave propagation whereas a deep convolutional neural network is used for the parameter estimation problem. In the numerical experiment, the primary unknowns, the amount of stored groundwater and water-table level, are estimated, while the remaining parameters, assumed to be of less of interest, are successfully marginalized in the convolutional neural networks-based solution.
