Changelog#

0.5.4 — 6 April 2022#

  • Fixed small issue with the Klauder wavelet not working when autocorrelation was False.

  • Changed the names of the convolve arguments to arr and v to better match NumPy.

  • The version number is now correctly stored in the __version__ attribute.

  • Added a User Guide notebook on making wavelets.

  • Added a User Guide notebook on seismic attributes.

0.5.3 — 21 February 2022#

  • Fixed issue #92: the Ormsby, Ormsby FFT and Klauder wavelets now behave as expected when 2D arrays (lists of frequency parameters, essentially) are passed. A filter bank (array of wavelets) is returned.

  • Fixed issue #93: the Sinc, Cosine and Gabor wavelets now behave as expected when sym is passed.

  • reflection.convolve() now works properly when the axis is specified, and a verbose option was added to show the input and output array shapes (helps with troubleshooting).

0.5.2 — 18 February 2022#

  • Breaking change: Mode is now 'same' by default on reflectivity functions. If you were assuming mode='valid' you should change your code.

  • reflection.reflectivity() now works properly on 2D panels of Vp, Vs, and rho.

  • reflection.acoustic_reflectivity() now optionally accepts only Vp (or impedance) or Rho. You should pass both if you have them, but if you only pass one, reflectivity will be computed from that alone.

  • reflection.convolve() now works properly on 2D and 3D reflectivity series, and even works with 2D wavelet banks (provided the bank is shorter in time than the model, which it usually will be).

  • reflection.elastic_impedance() now works properly on 2D panels of Vp, Vs, and rho.

  • We have started adding better documentation; check it out at code.agilescientific.com/bruges.

  • models.wedge() now behaves as expected if you pass a NumPy array of int values to strat.

0.5.1 — 17 February 2022#

  • Fixed a critical bug in 0.5.0 which prevented it from importing.

0.5.0 — 16 February 2022#

  • In all wavelets, sym is now True by default.

  • In all wavelets, return_t is now True by default. you can still set it to false but…

  • Future breaking change: In the next minor release, return_t will always be True. If you are setting it to False, please change your code. We will continue to accept the argument for the time being, so if you’re setting it to True, you can stop doing that, and leave it out of future code.

  • Breaking change: I changed the names of several of the new discontinuity attributes to use the word ‘discontinuity’, instead of ‘coherency’, ‘similarity’, etc. This is in line with Art Barnes’s classic paper “Too many seismic attributes”. It was too confusing.

  • bruges.filters.wavelets.rotate_phase(), deprecated in v0.4.1, has now gone away and is available in improved form as bruges.filters.rotate_phase().

  • Allowed discontinuity attributes to work properly on 2D data.

  • The docs have been substantially overhauled; we hope you notice an improvement.

v0.4.5 — 8 December 2021#

  • Breaking change: bruges.attribute.similarity (n.b. now renamed discontinuity in version 0.4.6) has a new interface and computes its result(s) differently. I added several seismic coherence attributes as options to bruges.attribute.similarity. Methods include Marfurt coherence, that of Gersztenkorn, A., and K. J. Marfurt, 1999, and gradient structure tensor coherence (T Randen et al., 2000, 70th Annual International Meeting, SEG, Expanded Abstracts, 668-671.). Choose the method with the ‘kind’ argument. These functions were written by Joe Kington and published in The Leading Edge in the June 2015 issue.

  • Complex trace attributes instantaneous_amplitude (envelope), instantaneous_phase and instantaneous_frequency, along with the quadrature, were added to bruges.attribute.

  • Fixed a bug in bruges.models.wedge that led to some wedge models not having the correct total size in the ‘depth’ dimension (e.g. sometimes being off by one pixel.)

  • Now tested on Python 3.8, 3.9 (should have been working, just catching up!). Removing Python 3.4 and 3.5 from testing.

  • Coming soon: dynamic-time-warp-assisted panel interpolation.

v0.4.4 — 27 September 2021#

  • bruges.reflection.acoustic_reflectivity() and bruges.reflection.reflectivity() now allow you to pass the axis to compute on (axis 0 by default, which results in a reflectivity series for each column in a 2D array). You can also set a ‘mode’, which is currently ‘valid’ and results in one less sample in the axis dimension. In the next release, v0.5, it will be ‘same’ by default, so the output is the same shape as the input.

v0.4.3 — 30 June 2021#

  • New in the models submodule: panel allows you to pass in two or more 1D arrays, which can be of different lengths, and linearly interpolate in between them, sample by sample. Note: there is no attempt to correlate them; the assumption is that the top and bottom correlate and everything in between correlates in a linear way.

  • New in models.wedge: varying net:gross along the ‘breadth’ (3rd) dimension of a wedge model. The wedge must be ‘binary’; that is, the middle (wedge) layer must only contain 2 components. The 3rd dimension will then show pinch-out geometries that vary from one lithology to the other.

  • It is now possible to choose power and root shapes for models.wedge, as well as linear and sigmoid.

  • Fixed a bug in models.wedge that caused some wedges to fail with single values for the width argument.

v0.4.2 — 1 March 2021#

  • The Ormsby wavelet now has the option of passing in the relative power (in dB) of the f2 and f3 corner frequencies, e.g. P=(0, -5). Default: (0, 0) (the conventional trapezoidal Ormsby bandpass filter).

  • Wavelets now have the option of returning an odd number of samples for ‘even’ time periods, like 0.128 s at 0.004 s sample interval. This used to return 32 samples; now if you set sym to True, you’ll get 33 samples. Future change: From v0.5, this will be the default.

  • Wavelet time shoud no longer suffer from floating point imprecision (previously common near t = 0).

  • You can now optionally pass a time series to a wavelet function, and the wavelet will be evaluated at those times. This overrides duration and dt, so you should pass None to those parameters (or get a warning).

  • Added a new module, models, which contains a new function, wedge. For now this generates 2D wedge models; in the future it will also provide 3D models.

  • Future change: Reminder: wavelets in v0.5 will no longer have return_t=True by default.

v0.4.1 — 21 February 2021#

  • Moved rotate_phase() to bruges.filters and it now should handle 2D and 3D seismic correctly. You can also pass an array-like of phases to get a ‘phase bank’ of rotations, similar to how this works with frequencies and wavelet banks.

v0.4 — 27 November 2020#

  • Breaking change: fixed numerous minor issues with attribute.energy(), see issue 78. Note that it now expects time to be in the last dimension of the array. The function now runs on n-D data and is also about 15 times faster.

  • Multiple fixes to the documentation, thanks especially to Jesper Dramsch and Adriana Gordon.

  • Added the filters.berlage() wavelet, a causal, minimum phase wavelet good for marine airgun sources.

  • Added the filters.generalized() wavelet, of which the Ricker is a special case, as defined by Wang 2015, Geophys J Int 203, p1172ff.

  • Added a FutureWarning that wavelets in the next release will have return_t=True by default. In a later release, the option will likely disappear completely.

  • Added fluids.rho_water(), fluids.rho_brine(), fluids.v_water(), and fluids.v_brine(), implementing equations from Batzle & Wang (1992).

  • Added filters.convolve(), which implements multi-dimensional convolution for 1D and 2D reflectivities and wavelets (or wavelet banks), and for 3D reflectivity with 1D wavelets. convolve(rc_panel, wavelet_bank) results in a 3D synthetic, with axes of frequency, offset, and time.

  • Added util.convolve_many() to implement a fast way to convolve a 1D kernel over multiple signals whose domain (time or distance) is in the last axis.

  • The reflectivity equations now accept a tuple for theta1, as well as a scalar value (interpreted as one angle, in degrees), or a list or array (interpreted as an array of angles). If you pass a 2-tuple, it is interpreted as a start and stop for a linear space; the step size will be 1.0 degrees. A 3-tuple is interpreted as a start, stop, and step size (note, not number of steps). The intervals specified will be open; the end-points will be included. So theta1=(0, 5) is equivalent to theta1=[0,1,2,3,4,5] and theta1=(0, 10, 2) is the same as theta1=[0,2,4,6].

v0.3.4 — 13 October 2018#

  • Added the NMO equation from Leo Uieda’s TLE tutorial. This is a work in progress.

  • Implemented generic (a windowed function), cosine, and gabor wavelets in filters. The cosine and gabor filters are implemented via generic.

  • Fixed a bug in filters.sinc that caused the wavelet to have the wrong amplitude with no taper. Implemented sinc using generic.

  • Fixed a bug in reflection.critical_angles that was preventing valid values from being computed.

  • Fixed a bug in CoordTransform that broke Python 2.7 compatibility.

  • Fixed up the documentation.

v0.3.3 — 7 February 2018#

  • Fixed some bugs in v0.3.2, including a problem with non-integer indices in the windowed mean that backus() uses.

  • Improved the time and depth conversion functions by adding the ability to return the new basis array (i.e. the new time or depth vector).

v0.3.2 — 7 February 2018#

  • Fixed a bug in bruges.filters that was returning the results from integer arrays as integers, giving incorrect results in those cases. Fixed tests.

  • Reflectivity equations in reflection module now work on vectors, so you can use ndarrays for both the Vp, Vs, and rho values, and the theta values. They are about 10 times faster than running a loop over elements; the Zoeppritz is over 100 times faster. The results put the angles in the first dimension, so you can simply index in to get one offset.

  • The Zoeppritz solutions and the Aki–Richards approximations now return the complex reflectivity and therefore show post-critical behaviour.

  • New reflection coefficient series function, reflection.reflectivity() makes it easier to make offset reflectivities from logs.

  • New acoustic reflection coefficient series function, acoustic_reflectivity().

  • Added critical_angles() and reflection_phase() functions to make it easier to compute the PP and PS critical angle(s), and to get the phase of a post-critical reflection.

  • Improvements to reflection module docs.

  • Deprecating moving_avg_conv and moving_avg_fft, and for now the function moving_average() will return the convolutional solution.

  • Several more simple linear and non-linear filters in bruges.filters, including median (good for seismic horizons) and mode (good for waveform classification).

  • You can no longer import ‘all’ from a module. This is a bad idea anyway, so I’m not calling it a breaking change.

  • The wavelets ricker() and sweep() now return transposed matrices if you ask for a wavelet bank by providing several frequencies. This is so the wavelets are in the first dimension, so you get get one by simply indexing.

  • The ormsby() wavelet now also works for a sequence of frequency tuples, returning a wavelet bank.

  • Fixed a bug in the sweep() wavelet that caused a time shift in the sweep function. Also added the taper option to the sweep() wavelet.

  • Added a sinc() wavelet, with a taper option to attenuate the sidelobes.

  • Added inverse_gardner, and other density and velocity transforms, to petrophysics.

  • Added transform.v_rms() (RMS velocity), transform.v_avg() (average velocity) and transform.v_bac() (naïve Backus average). These all operate in a ‘cumulative’ average-down-to sense, per Liner (2004), Elements of 3D Seismology.

v0.3.1 — 21 January 2018#

  • Repaired the rockphysics.elastic_impedance() function, which had various issues, including not applying normalization correctly and not working on vectors.

v0.3.0 — 12 January 2018#

  • Breaking change: anisotropy.backus now always returns Vp0, Vs0, and rho.

  • Non-compatible change: filters.wavelets.ricker no longer normalizes the output, to avoid a problem with amplitude dependence on filter length.

  • Functions returning tuples now return a collections.namedtuple so it’s more obvious what you’re getting back.

  • New nonlinear filters (plus tests): filters.snn(), filters.kuwahara() and filters.conservative().

  • sweep() optionally returns time basis, like the other wavelets.

  • reflection.shuey() optionally returns intercept and gradient instead of the terms. Set return_gradient=True.

  • No more shuey2(), shuey3(), bortfeld2(), bortfeld3(). Use shuey() and bortfeld() instead.

  • Zoeppritz calculation is now fully vectorized and 75% faster. Also added the full scattering_matrix() function to the list of available functions (it was previously a private function).

  • Better tests of the reflection algorithms (lower numerical tolerance).

  • Tidied up code.
