Review of machine learning and deep learning application in mine microseismic event classification

Abstract

Purpose. To put forward the concept of machine learning and deep learning approach in Mining Engineering in order to get high accuracy in separating mine microseismic (MS) event from non-useful events such as noise events blasting events and others. Methods. Traditionally applied methods are described and their low impact on classifying MS events is discussed. General historical description of machine learning and deep learning methods is shortly elaborated and different approaches conducted using these methods for classifying MS events are analysed. Findings. Acquired MS data from rock fracturing process recorded by sensors are inaccurate due to complex mining environment. They always need preprocessing in order to classify actual seismic events. Traditional detecting and classifying methods do not always yield precise results, which is especially disappointing when different events have a similar nature. The breakthrough of machine learning and deep learning methods made it possible to classify various MS events with higher precision compared to the traditional one. This paper introduces a state-of-the-art review of the application of machine learning and deep learning in identifying mine MS events. Originality.Previously adopted methods are discussed in short, and a brief historical outline of Machine learning and deep learning development is presented. The recent advancement in discriminating MS events from other events is discussed in the context of these mechanisms, and finally conclusions and suggestions related to the relevant field are drawn. Practical implications. By means of machin learning and deep learning technology mine microseismic events can be identified accurately which allows to determine the source location so as to prevent rock burst.

Microseismic Monitoring Signal Waveform Recognition and Classification: Review of Contemporary Techniques

“…These features may include amplitude, frequency, energy distribution, waveform shape, etc. By quantitatively analyzing these features, researchers can establish models for microseismic event recognition and classification [28]. These models can assist mining and underground engineering monitoring systems in more accurately identifying and responding to potential microseismic events, thereby enhancing the safety and sustainability of underground operations.…”

A novel intelligent risk prediction model for the effectiveness of CO2/N2–ECGD technology

“…7 However, there is a noticeable lack of research on the prediction of displacement effects based on deep learning algorithms in the context of gas injection displacement technology as applied to coal seams. In the field of safety management research, several techniques have been employed for risk assessment, including empirical, 8,9 analytical, 10,11 numerical, [12][13][14] experimental, 15,16 intelligent, [17][18][19] and expert system 20 approaches. Every method has its benefits and drawbacks.…”

CNN-Transformer for Microseismic Signal Classification

“…The commonly used methods for coal rock rupture microseismic signal identification [2] include time series analysis, machine learning, and deep learning, in which the traditional time series analysis methods contain parameter identification and time-frequency analysis. Based on the time series data to be identified, a parameter identification method selects one or more characteristic parameters from the time domain and classifies different types of signal by analyzing the feature parameters.…”
