    Abstract: One or more high resolution logs of a formation property having thin beds is provided for the laminated formation. From this log, the bed boundaries are detected and the facies for each of the beds detected is identified, using one or more high resolution logs of the laminated formation. Each of the identified facies is then defined. One or more squared logs for formation property is then generated by using the imported volumetric descriptions of the facies to generate a value of the formation property for each of the beds. A reconstructed log is generated and compared with a low resolution log of the formation property for laminated formation. By adjusting the values of the squared log the difference between the reconstructed log and the squared log may be minimized. An optimized squared log is output as having the square log and the volumetric analyses thereon.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are useful for decomposing a complex distribution of data by modeling the complex distribution as a sum of discrete simple distributions, and processing the simple distributions independently. The independent processing enables the complex distribution to be reconstructed without the simple distributions that are concluded to be spurious. The simple distributions preferably include one or more statistical distributions that are subject to being characterized by a reduced data set for efficient communication and reconstruction of the complex distribution. The modeling and processing steps preferably employ one or more evolutionary algorithms.
