The development of self-supervised learning techniques has gained a lot of visibility in the field of Computer Vision as it allows the pre-training of deep neural networks without the need for annotated data. In some domains, annotations are costly, as they require a lot of specialized work to label the data. This problem is very common in the Oil and Gas sector, where there is a vast amount of uninterpreted data. The present work aims to apply the self-supervised learning technique called Masked Autoencoders to pre-train Vision Transformers models with seismic data. To evaluate the pre-training, transfer learning was applied to the seismic facies segmentation problem. In the pre-training phase, four different seismic volumes were used. For the segmentation, the Facies-Mark dataset was used and the Segmentation Transformers model was chosen from the literature. To evaluate and compare the performance of the methodology, the segmentation metrics used by the benchmarking work of ALAUDAH (2019) were used. The metrics obtained in the present work showed a superior result. For the frequency weighted intersection over union (FWIU) metric, for example, we obtained a gain of 7.45 percent in relation to the reference work. The results indicate that the methodology is promising for improving computer vision problems in seismic data.
