Abstract:The present study explores the applicability and effectiveness of an optimization technique applied to electrical resistivity tomography data. The procedure is based on the Jacobian matrix, where the most sensitive measurements are selected from a comprehensive data set to enhance the least resolvable parameters of the reconstructed model. Two existing inversion programs in two and three dimensions are modified to incorporate this new approach. Both of them are selecting the optimum data from an initial compre… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
