![]() | Algorithm Inversion algorithm |
Usage |
||||
|
||||
Description |
||||
Defines the inversion algorithm type. Valid options are: •"Fixed" - Fixed number of iterations (models) •"Auto" - Terminate once the convergence tolerance is reached
|
![]() | Parallel_flag Parallel flag |
Usage |
||||
|
||||
Description |
||||
Defines the flag for carrying out the misfit model simulations in parallel (default) or sequentially. Valid options are: •0 - Disable parallel (i.e. sequential) •1 - Enable parallel (default)
|
![]() | Maximum_num_samples Number of samplings |
Usage |
||||
|
||||
Description |
||||
Maximum_num_samples defines the number of samplings to perform for the nearest neighbour inverse algorithm (default 20).
|
![]() | Num_models_in_initial_sample Number of models in initial sample |
Usage |
||||
|
||||
Description |
||||
Num_models_in_initial_sample defines the number of models in the initial sample. This must be greater or equal to the number of models for subsequent iterations. By default Num_models_in_initial_sample = Num_models_in_sample.
|
![]() | Num_models_in_sample Number of models for each subsequent sampling |
Usage |
||||
|
||||
Description |
||||
Num_models_in_sample defines the number of models for each subsequent sampling (Default 10). By default Num_models_in_sample = Num_models_in_initial_sample.
|
![]() | Num_models_in_resample Number of models for neighbourhood resampling |
Usage |
||||
|
||||
Description |
||||
Num_models_in_resample defines the number of models for neighbourhood resampling ( nr ). The parameter nr influences the nature of the neighbourhood algorithm search which is exploratory in nature; i.e. for larger values, the sampling is spread over more cells, and conversely, for smaller values, it is restricted to fewer cells and the sampling is more localized. By default, the number of models in the resamples is set to half the number in samples. i.e. on the subsequent iteration two new models will be generated in the most optimal half of the current sample set.
|
![]() | Convergence_tolerance Convergence tolerance for inversion |
Usage |
||||
|
||||
Description |
||||
Defines the convergence tolerance for the inversion process. If Convergence_tolerance is specified, the iterative process is terminated once a model achieves a misfit below the Convergence_tolerance. If Convergence_tolerance is not specified then the specified Maximum_num_samples will be performed.
|
![]() | Number_models_output Number of best models for output |
Usage |
||||
|
||||
Description |
||||
Defines the number of best models for output to the output file. The models are output in the order of minimum misfit error.
|
![]() | Model_delete_option Flag options to define how many of the model results files to save or delete |
Usage |
||||
|
||||
Description |
||||
Model_delete_option defines the flag options to define how many of the model results files to save or delete at the end of the optimisation procedure. Valid options are: •"DeleteAll" - Delete all model files •"KeepAll" - Keep all model files •"KeepBest" - (Default) Keep best files with extensions specified by Model_results_keep. If k1\ Model_results_keep is not defined, the default is to delete all results files with the exception of data files, history files and error files.
Notes •Model_delete_option set to "KeepBest" works in conjunction with Number_models_output. The number of best models (i.e. models with lower misfit values) kept at the end of each resample will be defined by Number_models_output. •The type of model results files to be saved or deleted are defined by Model_clean_option and Model_results_keep. •For Model_delete_option, Model_clean_option, Model_results_keep and Number_models_output to work in conjunction with each other, the ParaGeoInv inverse filename (.inp) and the template data filename (.dat) must be the same.

![]() | Model_clean_option Flag options to define the type of model results files to save or delete |
Usage |
||||
|
||||
Description |
||||
Model_clean_option defines the flag options to define the type of model results files to save or delete at the end of the optimisation procedure. Valid options are: •"KeepAll" - Keep all model results type (default) •"KeepSpec" - Keep the results specified in\Model_results_keep |
![]() | Model_results_keep List of output file types to keep |
Usage |
|||||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||||
Description |

Model_results_keep defines the list of output file types to keep. If not defined, by default, all output files are deleted with the exception of data files, history files and error files. Valid file types are: •"History" - History files •"Geometry" - Geometry plot files •"PlotFile" - Result plot files •"Grid" - Grid plot files •"Mesh" - Mesh plot files •"Result" - Result plot files •"Restart" - Restart files
