Inverting Subsurface Flow Data for Geologic Scenarios Selection with Convolutional Neural Networks

We provide an iterative two-step scheme for fast geologic scenario falsification. In the feature extraction step, a coarse scale inversion is done by using a hybrid PCA basis. In the feature recognition step, CNN is used to predict the relevances of each scenario and then the composition of the hybrid PCA basis is updated based on the prediction.

We provide the training of CNN for a 2D fluvial dataset and a 3D four-faces dataset. We also provide the inversion codes in MATLAB where simulation is done through MRST.
