Abstract
- This paper develops a minimum-support focusing stabilizer to perform a joint inversion of the vertical components of gravity and magnetic data using fuzzy c-means clustering (FCM) with the regularized Newton method in a space of weighted parameters. Not only does this joint inversion technology arrive at the conditionally well-posed traditional potential field inversion, but it also increases the structural correlation between multiple inverted models. The FCM and the focusing stabilizer make it possible to balance the convergence of the data space (D) and the model space (M), guiding multimodal geophysical parameters toward assigned petrophysical values, which makes the results more stable and realistic. Two model studies are presented to illustrate the method, a simple synthetic model with two rectangular bodies in a homogenous background and a realistic model of the Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (VMS) deposits in northeastern New Brunswick, Canada. These models demonstrate that the new focusing joint inversion algorithm produces better images than traditional methods because the FCM function uses the structural correlation of density contrast and magnetic susceptibility as constraints.
