Non-Parametric and Multivariate Geostatistics


Description

Cell-based geology modeling methods include indicator formalism for categorical data and truncated Gaussian simulation. Object-based and process-based approaches for fluvial reservoirs. Indicators for continuous variable estimation and simulation. Multivariate geostatistics, including models of coregionalization, cokriging, Gaussian cosimulation, Markov-Bayes simulation and multivariate data transformation approaches. Introduction to advanced simulation approaches including direct simulation, simulated annealing and multiple point simulation.
