Robust inversion of vertical electrical sounding data using a multiple reweighted least‐squares method

Abstract: The root cause of the instability problem of the least‐squares (LS) solution of the resistivity inverse problem is the ill‐conditioning of the sensitivity matrix. To circumvent this problem a new LS approach has been investigated in this paper. At each iteration, the sensitivity matrix is weighted in multiple ways generating a set of systems of linear equations. By solving each system, several candidate models are obtained. As a consequence, the space of models is explored in a more extensive and effective way… Show more

“…observadas (Rijo et al, 1977;Lines & Treitel, 1984;Carrasquilla & Rijo, 1991;Ferreira & Porsani, 1977;Marinho, 1997;Monteiro & Porsani, 1999;Monteiro, 1999). A seguir apresentamos o método utilizado na interpretação quantitativa das SEVs desenvolvido com base no procedimento iterativo proposto por Porsani et al (2001). Seja d(x) o valor de resistividade aparente de uma SEV, observado na separação x=AB/2 e seja ρ a (m,x) a função não linear utilizada para cálculo dos valores teóricos de resistividade aparente (Gosh, 1971a(Gosh, , 1971bJohansen, 1977;Koefoed,1979 …”

“…Desta maneira, em cada passo k do processo iterativo, podemos pesquisar várias vezes por um melhor modelo para substituir o modelo corrente. Esta estratégia, proposta por Porsani et al (2001), permite que se explore o espaço dos modelos de forma mais extensiva, conferindo robustez e eficácia ao método de IL.…”
