Abstract:Seismic waves produce anomalies when they pass through hydrocarbons; these anomalies, which are commonly used to detect hydrocarbons, are manifested differently in different domains. Here, we propose a novel hydrocarbon detection method that combines Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), the Teager-Kaiser energy operator (TKEO), and the cepstrum. This method utilizes EMD’s ability to adaptively decompose signals, benefits from the TKEO’s superior performance regarding the focusing of instantaneous energy, and us… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
