In geophysics, inverse modelling can be applied to a wide range of goals, including, for instance, mapping the distribution of rock physical parameters in applied geophysics and calibrating models to forecast the behaviour of natural…
Inversion techniques are widely used to reconstruct subsurface physical properties (e.g., velocity, conductivity) from surface-based geophysical measurements (e.g., seismic, electric/magnetic (EM) data). The problems are governed by partial…
Scientific curiosity, exploration of georesources and environmental concerns are pushing the geoscientific research community toward subsurface investigations of ever-increasing complexity. This review explores various approaches to…
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…
It is believed that some numerical technique must be employed for the determination of the system parameters of a visual binary or a star with a planet because the relevant equations are not only highly nonlinear but also transcendental…
Consider the problem of finding an optimal value of some objective functional subject to constraints over numerical domain. This type of problem arises frequently in practical engineering tasks. Nowdays almost all general methods for…
Quantitative methods are more familiar to most geophysicists with direct inversion or indirect inversion. We will discuss seismic inversion in a high level sense without getting into the actual algorithms. We will stay with meta-equations…
Geometric algebra is an optimal frame work for calculating with vectors. The geometric algebra of a space includes elements that represent all the its subspaces (lines, planes, volumes, ...). Conformal geometric algebra expands this…
For numerous earth observation applications, one may benefit from various satellite sensors to address the reconstruction of some process or information of interest. A variety of satellite sensors deliver observation data with different…
We consider seismic imaging to include seismic inversion. Imaging could use approximate operator or time instead of depth. Processing in time is an important part of seismic imaging as well as processing in depth. We can classify seismic…
In a variety of scientific applications we wish to characterize a physical system using measurements or observations. This often requires us to solve an inverse problem, which usually has non-unique solutions so uncertainty must be…
Nonlinear least squares data-fitting driven by physical process simulation is a classic and widely successful technique for the solution of inverse problems in science and engineering. Known as "Full Waveform Inversion" in application to…
Structural seismic interpretation and quantitative characterization are historically intertwined processes. The latter provides estimates of properties of the subsurface which can be used to aid structural interpretation alongside the…
The problem of inverting a system in presence of a series-defined output is analyzed. Inverse models are derived that consist of a set of algebraic equations. The inversion is performed explicitly for an output trajectory functional, which…
In tomographic reconstruction, the goal is to reconstruct an unknown object from a collection of line integrals. Given a complete sampling of such line integrals for various angles and directions, explicit inverse formulas exist to…
The inverse Ising problem seeks to reconstruct the parameters of an Ising Hamiltonian on the basis of spin configurations sampled from the Boltzmann measure. Over the last decade, many applications of the inverse Ising problem have arisen,…
Geometric programming is an important class of optimization problems that enable practitioners to model a large variety of real-world applications, mostly in the field of engineering design. In many real life optimization problem…
A critical decision process in data acquisition for mineral and energy resource exploration is how to efficiently combine a variety of sensor types and to minimize total cost. We propose a probabilistic framework for multi-objective…
Geophysical inversion should ideally produce geologically realistic subsurface models that explain the available data. Multiple-point statistics is a geostatistical approach to construct subsurface models that are consistent with…
Seismic imaging is the numerical process of creating a volumetric representation of the subsurface geological structures from elastic waves recorded at the surface of the Earth. As such, it is widely utilized in the energy and construction…
