Depth estimation of gravity anomalies using Hopfield Neural Networks

Authors
Abstract
The method of Artificial Neural Network is used as a suitable tool for intelligent interpretation of gravity data in this paper.
We have designed a Hopfield Neural Network to estimate the gravity source depth. The designed network was tested by both synthetic and real data. As real data, this Artificial Neural Network was used to estimate the depth of a Qanat (an underground channel) located at north entrance of the Institute of Geophysics and the result was very near to the real value of the depth.
