A new Frame-Difference-aware Spatiotemporal Fusion Network (FDSF-Net) improves rockburst prediction in coal mines. This AI model analyzes microseismic data to provide intelligent early warnings, enhancing mine safety.
Area of Science:
- Geophysics
- Mining Engineering
- Artificial Intelligence
Background:
- Microseismic vibration fields in deep coal mines indicate stress changes, crucial for predicting dynamic rockbursts.
- Existing methods often use limited microseismic data, failing to capture complex spatiotemporal dynamics.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop a novel deep learning framework for accurate microseismic vibration field prediction.
- To enhance intelligent early warning systems for rockbursts in underground coal mines.
Main Methods:
- Proposed the Frame-Difference-aware Spatiotemporal Fusion Network (FDSF-Net), a fully spatiotemporal deep learning model.
- Incorporated channel attention for dynamic disturbance information and multiscale spatial convolutions for pattern recognition.
- Utilized hierarchical fusion and temporal-channel mixing for comprehensive spatiotemporal feature extraction.
Main Results:
- FDSF-Net achieved Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 109.75 and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 3.53 on real-world microseismic data.
- Model demonstrated effective learning of multiscale spatial patterns and robust generalization across different mine sites.
- Feature visualization confirmed the model's ability to capture critical spatiotemporal dynamics.
Conclusions:
- FDSF-Net offers a significant advancement in microseismic vibration field prediction for rockburst early warning.
- The developed framework supports the creation of more accurate and interpretable intelligent warning systems.
- This approach enhances safety in deep underground coal mining operations.
