Saliency estimation has become a valuable tool in image processing and raised much interest in theory and applications. Despite significant recent progress, the performance of the best available saliency estimation approaches still lags behind human visual systems. In this paper we used saliency filters and domain knowledge in photography to estimate saliency. Experiments show that our method can successfully detect the true salient content from images.

As a process that identifies geologic structures of interest such as faults, salt domes, or elements of petroleum systems in general, seismic structural interpretation depends heavily on the domain knowledge and experience of interpreters as well as visual cues of geologic structures, such as texture and geometry. With the dramatic increase in size of seismic data acquired for hydrocarbon exploration, structural interpretation has become more time consuming and labor intensive. By treating seismic data as images rather than signal traces, researchers have been able to utilize advanced image-processing and machine-learning techniques to assist interpretation directly. In this paper, we mainly focus on the interpretation of two important geologic structures, faults and salt domes, and summarize interpretation workflows based on typical or advanced image-processing and machine-learning algorithms. In recent years, increasing computational power and the massive amount of available data have led to the rise of deep learning. Deep-learning models that simulate the human brain's biological neural networks can achieve state-of-the-art accuracy and even exceed human-level performance on numerous applications. The convolutional neural network — a form of deep-learning model that is effective in analyzing visual imagery — has been applied in fault and salt dome interpretation. At the end of this review, we provide insight and discussion on the future of structural interpretation.

The problems of highlighting the main informational aspects of images and creating their adequate models are discussed in the chapter. Vision systems can receive information about an object in different frequency ranges and in a form that is not accessible to the human visual system. Vision systems distort the information contained in the image. Therefore, to create effective image processing and transmission systems, it is necessary to formulate mathematical models of signals and interference. The chapter discusses the features of perception by the human visual system and the issues of harmonizing the technical characteristics of industrial systems for receiving and transmitting images. Methods and algorithms of pattern recognition are discussed. The problem of conjugation of the characteristics of the technical vision system with the consumer of information is considered.
