The goal of a scientific investigation is to find answers to specific questions. In geosciences this is typically achieved by solving an inference or inverse problem and interpreting the solution. However, the answer obtained is often biased because the solution to an inverse problem is nonunique and human interpretation is a biased process. Interrogation theory provides a systematic way to find optimal answers by considering their full uncertainty estimates, and by designing an objective function that defines desirable qualities in the answer. In this study we demonstrate interrogation theory by quantifying the size of a particular subsurface structure. The results show that interrogation theory provides an accurate estimate of the true answer, which cannot be obtained by direct, subjective interpretation of the solution mean and standard deviation. This demonstrates the value of interrogation theory. It also shows that fully nonlinear uncertainty assessments may be critical in order to address real-world scientific problems, which goes some way towards justifying their computational expense.
We describe a novel framework for estimating subsurface properties, such as rock permeability and porosity, from time-lapse observed seismic data by coupling full-waveform inversion, subsurface flow processes, and rock physics models. For the inverse
Most of the seismic inversion techniques currently proposed focus on robustness with respect to the background model choice or inaccurate physical modeling assumptions, but are not apt to large-scale 3D applications. On the other hand, methods that a
Sensitivity analysis plays an important role in searching for constitutive parameters (e.g. permeability) subsurface flow simulations. The mathematics behind is to solve a dynamic constrained optimization problem. Traditional methods like finite diff
The Hessian matrix plays an important role in correct interpretation of the multiple scattered wave fields inside the FWI frame work. Due to the high computational costs, the computation of the Hessian matrix is not feasible. Consequently, FWI produc
The three electromagnetic properties appearing in Maxwells equations are dielectric permittivity, electrical conductivity and magnetic permeability. The study of point diffractors in a homogeneous, isotropic, linear medium suggests the use of logarit
