Integrating probabilistic graphical models, information theory, and the principle of increase of entropy for quantifying and analyzing the uncertainty in fault interpretation
Zhicheng Lei
Abstract:Fault interpretation in geology inherently involves uncertainty, and there is a growing need to develop methods to quantify and analyze this uncertainty. In this paper, we propose a novel framework that integrates Markov chains, graph theory, information theory, and the principle of increase of entropy to comprehensively analyze uncertainty in fault interpretation and its geological implications. Our framework provides a more complete and quantitative approach compared to traditional methods, we show how entro… Show more
