Well-logging curves, Hough transform, line tracing
In the paper, a three-step approach is presented to detect and remove severely broken grid lines in noisy well logs. It is very important to detect and remove these lines so that the well-logging curves can be traced automatically and precisely. At first, well logs are straightened; then the Small Segment Line Removing method is employed to detect and remove severely broken grid lines; and third, the Tiny Line Removing method is used to clean tiny grid lines and noise left over from step 2. Experimental results show that the three-step approach can successfully detect and remove 98% of broken grid lines and noise, and reserve well-logging curves in the collected 58 low quality well logs.
