Tackling an Inverse Problem from the Petroleum Industry with a Genetic Algorithm for Sampling
نویسندگان
چکیده
When direct measurement of model parameters is not possible, these need to be inferred indirectly from calibration data. To solve this inverse problem, an algorithm that preferentially samples all regions of the parameter space that fit data well is needed. In this paper, we apply a real-parameter Genetic Algorithm (GA) to sample the parameter space for the inverse problem of calibrating a petroleum reservoir model. This results in several important insights into this nonlinear inverse problem.

An improved genetic algorithm for multidimensional optimization of precedence-constrained production planning and scheduling
Integration of production planning and scheduling is a class of problems commonly found in manufacturing industry. This class of problems associated with precedence constraint has been previously modeled and optimized by the authors, in which, it requires a multidimensional optimization at the same time: what to make, how many to make, where to make and the order to make. It is a combinatorial,...
