Coarse-to-fine MCMC in a seismic monitoring system
نویسنده
چکیده
We apply coarse-to-fine MCMC to perform Bayesian inference for a seismic monitoring system. While traditional MCMC has difficulty moving between local optima, by applying coarse-to-fine MCMC, we can adjust the resolution of the model and this allows the state to jump between different optima more easily. It is quite similar to simulated annealing. We will use a 1D model as an example, and then compare traditional MCMC with coarse-to-fine MCMC and discuss the scaling behavior.

Efficient sampling techniques for uncertainty
5 The Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is a rigorous sampling method to quan6 tify uncertainty in subsurface characterization. However, the MCMC usually requires 7 many flow and transport simulations in evaluating the posterior distribution and can be 8 computationally expensive for fine-scale geological models. We propose a methodology 9 that combines coarseand fine-scale information to improve...

Oceanographic images obtained from environmental satellites by a wide range of sensors allow characterizing natural phenomena through different physical measurements. For instance Sea Surface Temperature (SST) images, altimetry data and ocean color data can be used for characterizing currents and vortex structures in the ocean. The purpose of this thesis is to derive a relatively complete frame...

Here in, an application of a new seismic inversion algorithm in one of Iran’s oilfields is described. Stochastic (geostatistical) seismic inversion, as a complementary method to deterministic inversion, is perceived as contribution combination of geostatistics and seismic inversion algorithm. This method integrates information from different data sources with different scales, as prior informat...
