  • Patent number: 12613351
    Abstract: A quality control method and apparatus generate maps for cycle skipping analysis of velocity models that may be the input or the output of a full waveform inversion. A comparison of observed data and corresponding synthetic data generated using a candidate velocity model yields feature images of shots. The feature images are then grouped in clusters using unsupervised machine learning. Deviation of the feature images from an ideal non-cycle skipped image allows to measure the quality of the candidate velocity model.
