Abstract:
A technique includes simulating seismic wave propagation based on an acoustic model and based on a result of the simulation, estimating an error between the result and another result obtained if the seismic wave propagation were simulated based on an elastic model. The technique includes based at least in part on the estimated error predicting the other result without performing the simulation based on the elastic model.
