Abstract
The integration of deep learning techniques from the field of image generation into digital rock analysis has resulted in substantial advancements. However, generating high-quality and highly controllable heterogeneous digital rocks still presents challenges and necessities. This paper reports a digital rock reconstruction method using a multi-condition denoising diffusion probabilistic model (MCDDPM). This method has the diffusion and denoising processes inherent in the diffusion model, ensuring high-quality reconstructed samples. Meanwhile, various physical property parameters are embedded as conditions in the network layers of the model at multiple scales, enhancing the conditional control ability of this method. We compared the porosity, pore size distribution, and two-point correlation coefficient under the same conditions, as well as the evaluation indicators of different methods. The comparative results provide convincing evidence for the accuracy of our proposed digital rock reconstruction method. In addition, studies on the control effect of different conditions on reconstructed samples also demonstrate the effectiveness of our strategy. Therefore, MCDDPM can reconstruct reasonable heterogeneous digital rocks based on combinations of physical property conditions, which provides effective technical support for expanding the library of heterogeneous digital rock samples and even achieving zero-shot learning of digital rocks.
