249: Machine Learning Methods in Geoscience
“The biggest challenge for geophysicists? Learning machine learning's ‘new language’ from the world of statistics.”
Machine learning is transforming geoscience, and Gerard Schuster explains how. This conversation explores key ML applications in seismic interpretation, the role of convolutional neural networks in fault detection, and why hands-on labs are essential for mastering these techniques. With real-world examples and insights from his new book, Machine Learning Methods in Geoscience, this episode delivers practical knowledge for integrating ML into geophysics.
