RESUMO

The seismic inverse problem involves determining the subsurface physical properties from data sampled at Earth`s surface. A mathematical model of the response of the subsurface excited by a seismic source, having physical properties as parameters, provides a synthetic model for this response. This makes possible to compare sampled and synthetic data. The perturbation in the model due to the variation of its parameters can approximate these data and states the inversion problem as the minimization of an error function that fits them adequately. Usually, the methods which attempt to minimize this error assume that a perturbation in the model is linearly relates with a perturbation in the measured response. Most geophysical inverse problems are highly nonlinear and are rife with local minima. Therefore these methods are very sensitive to the choice of the initial model and good starting solutions may not be available. What should be done, if there is no basis for an initial guess? The theory of Bayesian inference provides an answer to this question taking into account the prior information about the parameter space. The inverse problem can then be stated as an optimization problem whose goal is to maximize the posterior probability that the set of parameters has a certain value once given the result of the sample. This problem is solved by the Simulated Annealing method, a global optimization method that executes a oriented random search in the solution space. This method comes from an analogy between the physical annealing of solids and optimization problems. The Very Fast Simulated Annealing (VFSA), a variant of SA, is applied to the solution of 1 D seismic inverse problems generated synthetically by acoustic and alastic done by a elastic model with additive noise.
