Title
Automatic Seismic Signal Detection via Record Segmentation
Abstract
The automatic seismic signal detection constitutes a very interesting and challenging task. The main difficulty in solving this problem is attributed to the fact that both the statistical properties of seismic noise and the characteristics of the recorded events are in general unknown. In this paper, by exploiting the particular nature of the signals we are treating, as well as a number of very interesting properties possessed by exchangeable random variables, we formulate the problem at hand as a record segmentation one and propose the use of two functionally linked test statistics for its efficient and robust solution, in a two-step procedure. By following this approach, we succeed not only in detecting a seismic wave arrival, but also in identifying the entire interval occupied by the signal, while minimizing the number of the required parameters. The performance of the proposed technique is confirmed by a series of experiments, both in synthetic and real seismic data sets.
