In the framework of flow simulations in Discrete Fracture Networks, we consider the problem of identifying possible backbones, namely preferential channels in the network. Backbones can indeed be fruitfully used to reduce the computational cost of simulations or to analyze clogging and waste storage problems. With a suitably trained Neural Network at hand, we use the Layer-wise Relevance Propagation method to detect the relevance of each fracture in a Discrete Fracture Network and thus identifying the backbone.
