Many deep learning methods have been proposed to classify moving targets from seismic signals in recent years. However, the existing deep models are all designed based on the “end-cloud” framework, in which real-time data processing is difficult because of communication delays. To address this problem and achieve on-site target classification, we propose a novel edge intelligence-oriented method, named compressed sensing-edge convolutional neural network (CS-ECNN). In this method, the acquired seismic signals are first mapped onto a compressed domain using CS. This operation reduces data dimensions, while being able to retain the vast majority of valuable seismic features. Following that, a convolutional neural network is employed to extract implicit features directly from the compressed seismic measurements and then classify the feature vectors. To evaluate the proposed method, the seismic data recorded in DARPA’s SensIT project are used as a case study. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model is edge-matched, and it achieves comparable classification accuracy to the state-of-the-art cloud-based models with only 1/10 computation time.
