“…It has been widely explored in all different applications, including those in geophysics, due to its great potential in pattern recognition and nonlinear regression. In geophysics, specifically for well log measurements, unsupervised learning algorithms such as self-organizing map, cross-entropy clustering, and Gaussian mixture model have been applied to logs for automatic zoning and lithofacies recognition (Fung et al, 1995;Wu et al, 2018). Supervised learning methods, mainly classification or regression neural networks, have been employed for lithological classification, and permeability, porosity, or shear wave velocity estimation from well log data (Ahmadi & Chen, 2019;An et al, 2018;Anemangely et al, 2019;Bestagini et al, 2017).…”
