Footstep Detection in Fiber-Optic Seismic Data, Penn State fiber optic array (FORESEE)Detected and removed footsteps from a seismic data stream that generates 3TB of data weekly by processing raw data withFourier transform and a Butterworth bandpass filter to protect the integrity of seismic data collected from fiber-optic cables.Classified data using k-means clustering and CNNs and achieved 80% accuracy for train, validation, and test samples.Visualized the results for presentations to other groups, students, professors, and sponsors to illustrate data with andwithout footsteps and the impact of different bandpass filters and algorithms.
