Geophysical Applications of Artificial Neural Networks and Fuzzy Logic (Modern Approaches in Geophysics)

From Book News, Inc.
This book/CD-ROM describes geophysical applications of artificial neural networks and fuzzy logic, in areas such as seismology, mineral exploration, subterranean nuclear explosions, and electromagnetic exploration. A two-part bibliography lists introductory and advanced texts and review papers concerning the theory of artificial neural networks and fuzzy logic, and compiles all major publications concerning geophysical applications of artificial neural networks and fuzzy logic, from the 1980s to the present. The bibliography is broken down into references dealing with overviews of the subject, collective pattern recognition publications, and compilations of papers dealing with various applications. The accompanying CD-ROM contains color figures and searchable fields. Material originated at a 1997 workshop held in Geneva, Switzerland. There is no subject index.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Book Description
This book is the first major text to encompass the wide diversity of geophysical applications of artificial neural networks (ANNs) and fuzzy logic (FZ). Each chapter, written by internationally-renowned experts in their field, represents a specific geophysical application, ranging from first-break picking and trace editing encountered in seismic exploration, through well-log lithology determination, to electromagnetic exploration and earthquake seismology. The book offers a well-balanced division of contributions from industry and academia, and includes a comprehensive, up-to-date bibliography covering all major publications in geophysical applications of ANNs and FZ. A special feature of this volume is the preface written by Professor Fred Aminzadeh, eminent authority in the field of artificial intelligence and geophysics. The enclosed CD-ROM contains full colour figures and searchable files, as well as short biographies of the editors. Audience: This work will serve as an ideal reference for professional geophysicists, engineers and research students, as well as a useful introductory text for those just commencing their studies.
