Computer vision models predict land surface displacement for carbon capture

Researchers have developed CarbonNet, a novel approach utilizing computer vision to predict land surface displacement from subsurface geometry images for carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects. This method aims to reduce the high computational costs and generalization limitations associated with traditional physics-based models. The study implemented and compared various models, including CNN, ResNet, ResNetUNet, LSTM, and Transformer++, finding that ResNetUNet performed best for static mechanics problems and LSTM showed comparable results to Transformer++ for transient scenarios.
