摘要

The subsurface structure and composition of moon are always heterogeneous, also, both geometric shape of buried materials and electromagnetic characteristics of formations are complicated. Therefore, it is very challenging to interpret Lunar Penetrating Radar (LPR) data and segment subsurface layers accurately and reliably. In this paper, deep learning method is utilized to reconstruct geological models from simulated LPR signal dataset. First, the geometric contours of lunar rock are extracted based on the photos of the lunar rock samples from Apollo 14, using image edge detection. The principal component analysis method is used to reduce the dimensionality of LPR data. Then, using the back propagation algorithm based on Root Mean Square prop (RMSprop), an artificial neural network is built to predict geometric characteristics of single buried basaltic rock. The results show that the depth of the buried rock with high-contrast dielectric constant and complex geometric features has been predicted with high accuracies, with the R-square of 0.93. Also, an artificial neural network model is also created to reconstruct geometric characteristics of heterogeneous model with randomly distributed lunar rocks. The preliminary results provide an initial attempt for development of data-driven subsurface imaging techniques in the geoscience field.
