content measured in well bore to an entire seismic volume containing those well bores. Nerves calculate a
“wavelet singularity spectrum of the seismic data near the well-bores, training a neural net to predict the
physical properties from this spectrum. The neural net is then applied to the entire seismic volume. Well-
bores are much more expensive than seismic surveys. The advantage of Nerves lies in trying to extrapolate
the findings of this measurement along one trace in the subsurface volume to the entire seismic volume.
Nerves get the input of seismic volume and well bore list, it then creates geometry file, creates training set,
train neural network and predict properties.
