Deep learning‐based recognition method of red bed soft rock image

Abstract

In order to improve the investigation efficiency, improve the traditional engineering investigation work mode, realize the intelligent investigation, and improve the economic and social benefits of enterprises, a red soft rock image intelligent analysis and recognition system is proposed based on deep learning methods. The intelligent recognition system includes two core algorithms: soft rock image decomposition and soft rock lithology/weathering degree recognition. The research shows that the identification model of weathering degree and the lithology identification model based on the convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm have a good identification effect, and the identification probability of moderately weathered rock reaches 95.22% and the accuracy of lithology identification is 91.34%. With the increase in training data, the recognition effect will be further improved. The intelligent identification system has been integrated into the WeChat mini programme, App, and Web system, which can be directly applied to field geological survey operations to assist geological workers in the investigation work, and realize the intelligent identification and classification of red bed soft rock.
