some ideas after reading papers combined with your suggestions
Today, I thought of some ideas after reading papers combined with your suggestions.
Summary:
1. CMIS: in other papers, people combine different models into CMIS like fuzzy-logic, neuro-fuzzy and ANN. Since ANN performs the best among selected models, I think one improvement may be to use different ANN models in CMIS instead of various models. For now, I have not found how to realize it in MATLAB. I will continue to look for it.
2. one way to use Vp/Vs is to predict Vp and Vp/Vs together instead of predicting Vp and Vs together. From yesterday's work, it is more accurate to predict Vp than Vs, so predicting Vp and Vp/Vs together may be a good choice.
Tomorrow, I will start to improve the second paper.

predict sonic logs with basic ANN models
Today, I predicted sonic logs with basic ANN models.
Summary:
There are 13 inputs and 2 outputs (compressional and shear).
one hidden layer with 8 neurons
R2: 0.8570, 0.8184
NRMSE: 0.0631, 0.0673
two hidden layers with 9 and 5 neurons
R2: 0.8619, 0.8247
NRMSE: 0.0620, 0.0661
Asoodeh et al. (2011) improved accuracy using CMIS compared with ANN. But it is just 0.16% for compressional velocity and 0.63% for shear velocity with R2.
In our case, the accuracy is also improved by adding one more hidden layers. It is 0.57% for compressional velocity and 0.77% for shear velocity with R2.
The result shows that both of two methods improve little in accuracy and there is no need to use CMIS. Adding one more hidden layer is more efficient.
Tomorrow, I will search papers to see if I can find new methods.

Possible improvement from former research
Today, I thought about possible improvement from former research about predicting sonic logs.
Summary:
1. from papers I read yesterday, most predictive models use Vp as inputs with other conventional logs to predict Vs. Most empirical equations predict Vp and Vs together with limited accuracy.
2. There is one paper where Vp and Vs are predicted together with CMIS. There are three different models in CMIS including ANN, FL (fuzzy logic) and NF (Neuro-Fuzzy) models. The accuracy of CMIS is a little higher than ANN and much higher than FL and NF. So maybe there is no need to use CMIS.
Possible improvements:
1. Just use ANN to predict Vp and Vs together instead of CMIS
2. improve the performance of ANN and obtain higher accuracy than CMIS with less time (contain more inputs, more hidden layers, predict one of Vs and Vp first and predict the other next to get higher accuracy, select the best training function)
Next week, I will see if it is possible to use ANN to obtain higher accuracy than CMIS.

finish some tasks
Today, I finished some tasks.
Summary:
1. finish compile BHP and Hess dataset.
2. check that VPVS=DTSM/DTCO
I check it in Hess well and it is true. I did not find VPVS in BHP well. I think it also means that VPVS is obtained by DTSM/DTCO.
3. do some research on sonic logs. There are some applications for them:
quality control of transit-time logs
refinement of porosity predictions
determination of lithology
improvement of fracture detection
improvement of cement bond evaluation
Tomorrow, I will learn more about sonic logs and start to predict them by conventional logs.

make a conclusion of the past work and think about the next step
Today, I made a conclusion of the past work and wrote my SOP. In addition, I looked into RV and RH.
Summary:
Since the application deadline of Australian universities for next Fall is in October, I have to accelerate preparing for the application materials.
In addition, I considered about predicting RH and RV. It is possible because resistivity reflects the characteristics of both formation rocks and fluids, which are related to various logs. However, since resistivity logs are not quite expensive, maybe there is little application if the research can be done.
Tomorrow, we can talk about this as well as my next step of my research.

build the third model for abernathy well
Today, I compared two methods to build the third model.
Summary:
method 1: train all 8 models with log data and original dielectric data as inputs, test all 8 models with log data and predicted dielectric data as inputs.
method 2: train and test all 8 models one by one with log data as predicted dielectric data as inputs.
After comparison, it shows that method 1 has much worse accuracy than method 2 does. So method 2 should be used to build the third model.
I will send you by an email.
Tomorrow, I will start to write the second paper since I have all results of figures and tables now.
