Full-waveform adjoint Q tomography in viscoelastic medium with central-frequency measurements
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Accurate Q (quality factor) structures can provide important constraints for characterizing subsurface hydrocarbon/water resources in exploration geophysics and interpreting tectonic evolution of the Earth in earthquake seismology. The attenuation effects on seismic amplitudes and phases can be included in forward and inverse modeling by invoking a generalized standard linear solid rheology. Compared to traditional ray-based methods, full-waveform adjoint tomography, which is based on numerical solutions of the visco-elastodynamic wave equation, has the potential to provide more accurate Q models. However, applications of adjoint Q tomography are impeded by the computational complexity of Q sensitivity kernels, and by strong velocity- Q trade-offs. In this study, following the adjoint-state method, we show that the Q (P and S wave quality factors Q P and Q S ) sensitivity kernels can be constructed efficiently with adjoint memory strain variables. A novel central-frequency difference misfit function is designed to reduce the trade-off artifacts for adjoint Q tomography. Compared to traditional waveform-difference misfit function, this misfit function is less sensitive to velocity variations, and thus is expected to produce fewer trade-off uncertainties. The multiparameter Hessian-vector products are calculated to quantify the resolving abilities of different misfit functions. Comparative synthetic examples are given to verify the advantages of this new misfit function for adjoint Q P and Q S tomography. We end with a 3D viscoelastic inversion example designed to simulate a distributed acoustic sensing/vertical seismic profile survey for monitoring of CO 2 sequestration.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
