Abstract
This study examines reservoir-triggered seismicity (RTS) in Poland and Vietnam. The current state of individual RTS seismic networks necessitates detecting earthquakes from only a few stations. The number of P waves is often inadequate for phase association and event location, which underscores the importance of identifying S waves. Given that individual RTS cases may consist of only hundreds of events, it is crucial for algorithms to be trained on small datasets or to detect effectively using external, global training data. To evaluate this, we compared the efficiency of a deep learning global detection model, transfer learning to the RTS database, a specialized neural network designed for RTS, and manual detection of seismic signals. Transfer learning efficiency was database dependent. Additional interpretation and parametrization of detection results are assumed. Therefore, the emphasis is on phase detection, rather than phase picking accuracy, and detection sensitivity is more important than its specificity. Phase association plays a vital role in detecting seismic signals, facilitating the elimination of most false picks. As a result, the comparisons of detections were based on parameters related to the location of seismic events. The findings indicate that neither the automatic signal detection methods nor the manual methods alone are sufficient. However, their combination significantly enhances detectability. The final catalogs cover up to 30% more events compared to the previous manual. It fulfills the main aim of applying a neural network detector, which is to increase the number of seismic events in the catalog. It may also be further utilized in the research of the triggering process, such as identifying fluid paths and determining fault geometry.
