Research Area 1

Computational &
Physics-Informed Geophysics

Bridging fundamental physical wave equations with deep machine learning operators to construct robust, interpretable, and predictive subsurface models.

Department Pillar

Core Focus & Scope

Focus: As the foundational methodology department of the GeoSignal Institute, this area bridges pure wave mechanics and numerical analysis with modern artificial intelligence. By integrating physical laws directly into deep learning loss functions, we generate geophysically consistent predictions that circumvent the "black box" limitation of purely data-driven models.

Scope: Development of Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs), multi-dimensional acoustic and elastic forward modeling, high-performance computing (HPC) acceleration, and automated high-density seismic dataset processing.

Key Research Pillars

Pillar 01

Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs)

Embedding acoustic and elastic wave equations directly into neural operator loss functions to solve forward and inverse problems without requiring massive pre-labeled training datasets.

Pillar 02

High-Performance Computing (HPC) & Solvers

Optimizing GPU-accelerated finite-difference and spectral-element algorithms for real-time 3D wavefield simulation and large-scale elastic parameter inversion.

Pillar 03

High-Density DAS & Continuous Arrays

Developing computational algorithms to process high-throughput Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) streams for microseismic event detection and continuous monitoring.

Pillar 04

Uncertainty Quantification (UQ)

Utilizing Bayesian neural networks and variational inference to provide reliable confidence intervals alongside inverted velocity and impedance models.
