SeisBench DAS is an extension of the SeisBench library that standardizes distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) data, metadata, labels, and models for machine learning. It leverages the xdas framework for data ingestion and virtual array handling, and PyTorch for model application, providing an efficient engine to apply deep learning models across diverse DAS formats. The framework aims to bridge the gap between model developers and practitioners, facilitating the adoption of deep learning in DAS research and allowing easy integration of future developments.
arXiv:2606. 00081v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) enables large-scale monitoring through optical fibers, but its high dimensionality and complex spatio-temporal patterns make event classification demanding.
Mapping the distribution of traffic dynamics at high spatiotemporal resolution is a fundamental question in transportation research. Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), an innovative seismic observati...
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.
The paper presents a method that uses distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) and deep learning to monitor urban traffic at fine spatiotemporal resolution. By repurposing underground fiber‑optic cables as dense sensor arrays, the approach captures roadway activity at meter‑level spatial and second‑level temporal scales. A deep learning framework processes raw vibration waveforms to detect vehicle trajectories and infer traffic volume and speed, with a hybrid training strategy that combines synthetic and manually annotated data to improve detection in noisy, congested conditions.

MADS (Multi-view Acoustic Descriptor Set) is a compact 19‑dimensional, physics‑informed descriptor set designed to capture spectral, temporal, mechanical, and stochastic aspects of audio signals. Unlike traditional log‑mel or MFCC representations, MADS encodes excitation, damping, periodicity, impulsiveness, and structural consistency in a unified multi‑view format. Evaluated on ESC‑10, ESC‑50, and MSoS datasets with classical machine learning models, MADS outperforms conventional 26‑D MFCC and 38‑D spectral‑summary baselines, achieving 81.00% on ESC‑10, 52.78% on ESC‑50, and 67.48% on MSoS while using roughly half the dimensionality of the 38‑D baseline.
AudioFuse is a hybrid architecture that jointly learns from spectrograms and raw waveforms to classify phonocardiograms. It combines a wide-and-shallow Vision Transformer for spectral features with a shallow 1D CNN for temporal waveforms, reducing overfitting while capturing complementary information. On the PhysioNet 2016 dataset, AudioFuse achieves a state‑of‑the‑art ROC‑AUC of 0.8608 and shows superior robustness to domain shift on the PASCAL dataset, outperforming both spectrogram‑only and waveform‑only baselines.

The paper presents a compact underwater acoustic classification framework that integrates multi-representation feature engineering, temporal statistical pooling, and lightweight convolutional architectures for acoustic time-frequency and cochlear representations. Experiments on the ShipsEar dataset show a two-layer CNN achieving a macro F1 of 0.9918 and an RBF-SVM reaching 0.9883, but recording provenance issues limit verification of generalisation. When evaluated on the DeepShip dataset with recording-level partitioning, a 157K-parameter CNN attains a macro F1 of 0.7226, while a larger ResNet18 does not improve validation performance, underscoring the need for representation-aware design and rigorous evaluation for deployable systems.
Acoustic impedance imaging is a fundamental yet severely ill-posed problem in subsurface analysis: the seismic wavelet is unknown, observations are band-limited, and labeled well-log samples are extremely scarce (typically <1% of all traces). Existing semi-supervised deep learning methods mitigate few-shot problem by incorporating forward modeling, yet they either rely on inaccurate prior wavelet assumptions or introduce auxiliary networks, leading to unstable optimization and degraded performance.
