“…Nonprobabilistic methods ͑which do not explicitly consider the prior probability distribution͒ have also been used ͑e.g., Maurer and Boerner 1998a;Curtis, 1999aCurtis, , 1999bStummer et al, 2004;Coles and Morgan, 2009͒. Truly nonlinearized design methods that optimize the objective function in equation 13 have been developed in geophysical problems only relatively recently ͑van den Berg et al, 2003Berg et al, , 2005Curtis, 2004b;Winterfors and Curtis, 2008;Guest andCurtis, 2009, 2010͒.…”
