Suppressing random noise in seismic data is a significant problem in seismic data processing. Often, there is serious aliasing between the effective signal and random noise, affecting the identification of weak signals, and even resulting in great difficulties in the suppression of conventional seismic signals. We propose an improved attention-guided convolutional neural network (ADNet) to eliminate seismic interference noise. After a sufficient amount of training, the network removes noise by transferring seismic data features learned from a synthetic dataset to tests with complex field data. Our workflow consists of four parts. First, in the model, we improve the feature enhancement module (FEM) and attention module (AM), increase the convergence speed, and enhance the expressive ability. Second, we use 2-D synthetic data to verify the ability of the model to suppress noise in seismic records. Third, we use 2-D real seismic data to further verify the denoising effect of the improved ADNet. Fourth, we convert the 3-D simulated seismic data and field data into 2-D data for processing and reorganize the 2-D denoising results into 3-D data. By comparing the noise suppression outcomes of several classic denoising methods, simulations and actual experiments show that the improved ADNet effectively maintains the signal amplitude, reduces the network depth, and better suppresses seismic noise. Hence, we believe that our model can be widely applied in the field of seismic data processing.
