Two kinds of robustness are not the same: disentangling fault tolerance and low-SNR robustness in multi-domain event detection on real data

Reliable event detection underpins induced-seismicity monitoring for Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage (CCS) and geothermal operations, distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), and industrial condition monitoring. In each setting a detector must stay reliable both when sensors fail and when the signal is buried in noise.

Reliable Virtual Sensing: A Multi-Domain Benchmark for Robustness Under Sensor Failures

The paper introduces MuViS-C, a multi‑domain benchmark that evaluates the robustness of learning‑based virtual sensing models against ten common sensor failure modes, ranging from subtle drifts to catastrophic dropouts. It assesses models using average error, relative degradation, and worst‑case fragility across nine datasets from six domains, comparing six architectures (gradient‑boosted trees, convolution, recurrence, attention, and MLP‑mixing). The study finds that all models degrade under corruption, gradient‑boosted trees are most robust, and targeted robustification can improve attention models at the cost of nominal performance.

SagnacAssisted Enhanced OTDR for Distributed Acoustic Sensing: A Standardized Benchmark and Engineering Evaluation Framework

arXiv:2606. 05754v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry ($\phi$-OTDR) is widely used in large-scale distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) because it provides distributed spatiotemporal monitoring over long sensing distances.

Parameter-Efficient Adaptation of Pre-Trained Vision Foundation Models for Active and Passive Seismic Data Denoising

The paper presents a framework that adapts general-purpose Vision Foundation Models (VFMs) to seismic data denoising using Parameter‑Efficient Fine‑Tuning with Low‑Rank Adaptation (LoRA). It introduces a kurtosis‑guided unsupervised test‑time adaptation module that updates only LoRA parameters to self‑calibrate for site‑specific noise without ground truth. Experiments on exploration seismic images and DAS data demonstrate that the approach matches or surpasses domain‑specific models and generalizes well to unseen cross‑site data.

Should All Noises Be Treated Equally: Impact of Input Noise Variability on Neural Network Robustness

The paper examines how varying input noise characteristics—type, scale, and complexity—affect neural network robustness in geophysical tasks such as first break picking and denoising. By training models on fixed noise settings and testing them on both seen and unseen noise scenarios, the study constructs a robustness matrix that reveals how larger noise scales improve generalization and how aligning noise type with task complexity and architecture maximizes performance. Training with compound noise mixtures further mitigates weaknesses of single-noise training, acting as an implicit regularizer that enhances robustness under out‑of‑distribution conditions.

Evaluating deep learning models for fault diagnosis of a rotating machinery with epistemic and aleatoric uncertainty

arXiv:2412. 18980v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Uncertainty-aware deep learning (DL) models recently gained attention in fault diagnosis as a way to promote the reliable detection of faults when out-of-distribution (OOD) data arise from unseen faults (epistemic uncertainty) or the presence of noise (aleatoric uncertainty).
