Abstract

We describe an iterative multilevel method for solving linear systems representing forward modeling and back propagation of wavefields in frequency‐domain seismic inversions. The workhorse of the method is the so‐called multilevel Krylov method, applied to a multigrid‐preconditioned linear system, and is called multilevel Krylov‐multigrid (MKMG) method. Numerical experiments are presented for 2D Marmousi synthetic model for a range of frequencies. The convergence of the method is fast, and depends only mildly on frequency. The method can be considered as the first viable alternative to LU factorization, which is practically prohibitive for 3D seismic inversions.

Stored with the screening record, where it is evidence for the labels above.

Numerical solver for seismic inversion; a computational method in geophysics, not research methodology as an object.

genre: empirical
about Canada: no
confidence: high

It develops a numerical method for seismic inversion rather than studying research practice.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
