Abstract

The application of deep learning convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for rock image characterization has become a prominent method in petroleum geology both nationally and internationally. Precise and automated segmentation of rock sheet images is essential for effective analytical studies. This research addresses the limitations of traditional image segmentation methods, which suffer from low accuracy and high costs in analyzing reservoir rock flakes. We propose an advanced model based on the U-Net architecture, incorporating both attention mechanisms and residual networks. The inclusion of residual modules enhances the network's depth, while the Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) improves feature representation by adjusting the weighting of learned information. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that this approach delivers superior segmentation performance, marking a significant advancement in the field of reservoir rock image analysis.
