Application of simulated annealing to some seismic problems

Wavelet estimation, ray tracing, and traveltime inversion are fundamental problems in seismic exploration. They can be finally reduced to minimizing a highly nonlinear cost function with respect to a certain set of unknown parameters. I use simulated annealing (SA) to avoid local minima and inacc...
