Multi-Condition Guided Diffusion Model for Controllable Elastic Parameter Synthesis

Abstract

Prestack elastic parameter inversion is important for reservoir characterization and quantitative seismic interpretation. Most existing deep-learning-based methods have achieved promising results, but they generally require sufficient labeled training data and have limited flexibility in integrating multi-source conditioning information. To address this issue, we propose a multi-condition guided diffusion model for controllable elastic parameter synthesis. Elastic parameter training datasets are first constructed based on well log statistics and geological characteristics of the target area and are used to train the diffusion model. A unified multi-condition guided diffusion framework is then developed to incorporate both implicit and explicit conditioning information. Specifically, iterative latent variable refinement, Adapter-based conditioning, and a diffusion posterior sampling (DPS)-projection guidance strategy are introduced for implicit model-domain constraints, implicit structural constraints, and explicit conditioning-operator constraints, respectively. Synthetic examples demonstrate that the proposed method can generate elastic parameter samples that are consistent with the prescribed conditions under both single-condition and multi-condition guidance. When seismic data are used as conditioning information, the framework can be further adapted to seismic elastic parameter inversion. Experiments show that the proposed method improves the prediction of representative elastic parameters, including P-wave velocity, S-wave velocity, and density, compared with baseline methods. The synthesized samples can also support downstream deep-learning-based inversion under limited labeled data, achieving competitive performance.
