Steering seismic texture analysis algorithms using expert input

An apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one non-transitory memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
• display an image comprising seismic data on a display of the apparatus;
• detect, by the at least one processor, a user input corresponding to one or more portions of the image;
• cause, by the at least one processor, the image to be analyzed to determine a first feature vector corresponding to the seismic data;
• cause, by the at least one processor, the user input to be analyzed to determine at least one further feature vector corresponding to the user input;
• and
• determine at least one seismic texture for the one or more portions of the image based at least on the first feature vector and the at least one further feature vector.

A computer program product for analyzing an image, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a device to cause the device to:

• display the image on a display, wherein the image comprises seismic data;
• detect, using a processor, a user input corresponding to one or more portions of the image;
• cause, using the processor, the image to be analyzed to determine a first feature vector corresponding to the seismic data;
• cause, using the processor, the user input to be analyzed to determine at least one further feature vector corresponding to the user input;
• and
• determine, using the processor, at least one seismic texture for at least the one or more portions of the image based on the first feature vector and the at least one further feature vector.
