In near surface electrical exploration, it is often necessary to estimate the Cole-Cole model parameters according to the measured multi-frequency complex resistivity spectrum of ore and rock samples in advance. Parameter estimation is a nonlinear optimization problem, and the common method is least square fitting. The disadvantage of this method is that it relies on initial value and the result is unstable when data is confronted with noise interference. To further improve the accuracy of parameter estimation, this paper applied artificial neural network (ANN) method to the Cole-Cole model estimation. Firstly, a large number of forward models are generated as samples to train the neural network and when the data fitting error is lower than the error threshold, the training ends. The trained neural network is directly used to efficiently estimate the parameters of vast amounts of new data. The efficiency of the artificial neural network is analyzed by using simulated and measured spectral induced polarization data. The results show that artificial neural network method has a faster computing speed and higher accuracy in Cole-Cole model parameter estimation.

<p>An artificial neural network, which is an important part of artificial intelligence, has been widely used to many fields such as information processing, automation and economy, and geophysical data processing as one of the efficient tools. However, the application in geophysical electromagnetic method is still relatively few. In this paper, BP neural network was combined with airborne transient electromagnetic method for imaging subsurface geological structures.</p><p>We developed an artificial neural network code to map the distribution of geologic conductivity in the subsurface for the airborne transient electromagnetic method. It avoids complex derivation of electromagnetic field formula and only requires input and transfer functions to obtain the quasi-resistivity image section. First, training sample set, which is airborne transient electromagnetic response of homogeneous half-space models with the different resistivity, is formed and network model parameters include the flight altitude and the time constant, which were taken as input variables of the network, and pseudo-resistivity are taken as output variables. Then, a double hidden layer BP neural network is established in accordance with the mapping relationship between quasi-resistivity and airborne transient electromagnetic response. By analyzing mean square error curve, the training termination criterion of BP neural network is presented. Next, the trained BP neural network is used to interpret the airborne transient electromagnetic responses of various typical layered geo-electric models, and it is compared with those of the all-time apparent resistivity algorithm. After a lot of tests, reasonable BP neural network parameters were selected, and the mapping from airborne TEM quasi-resistivity was realized. The results show that the resistivity imaging from BP neural network approach is much closer to the true resistivity of model, and the response to anomalous bodies is better than that of all-time apparent resistivity numerical method. Finally, this imaging technique was use to process the field data acquired by the airborne transient method from Huayangchuan area. Quasi-resistivity depth section calculated by BP neural network and all-time apparent resistivity is in good agreement with the actual geological situation, which further verifies the effectiveness and practicability of this algorithm.</p>

We developed an artificial neural network to map the distribution of geologic conductivity in the earth subsurface using the airborne transient electromagnetic method. The artificial neural network avoids the need for complex derivations of electromagnetic field formulas and requires only input and transfer functions to obtain a quasi-resistivity image. First, training sample set from the airborne transient electromagnetic response of homogeneous half-space models with different resistivities was formed, and network model parameters, including the flight altitude, time constant, and response amplitude, were determined. Then, a double-hidden-layer back-propagation (BP) neural network was established based on the mapping relationship between quasi-resistivity and airborne transient electromagnetic response. By analyzing the mean square error curve, the training termination criterion of the BP neural network was determined. Next, the trained BP neural network was used to interpret the airborne transient electromagnetic responses of various typical layered geo-electric models, and the results were compared with that from the all-time apparent resistivity algorithm. The comparison indicated that the resistivity imaging from the BP neural network approach was much closer to the true resistivity of the model, and the response to anomalous bodies was better than that from an all-time apparent resistivity. Finally, this imaging technique was used to process field data acquired by employing the airborne transient method from the HuaYin survey area. Quasi-resistivity depth sections calculated with the BP neural network and the actual geological situation were in good.
