| Content Summary | We focus on the performances of three nature-inspired metaheuristic methods for the optimization of time-domain electromagnetic (TDEM) data: the Genetic Algorithm (GA), the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and the Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) algorithms. While GA and PSO have been used in a plethora of geophysical applications, GWO has received little attention in the literature so far, despite promising outcomes. This study directly and quantitatively compares GA, PSO and GWO applied to TDEM data. To date, these three algorithms have only been compared in pairs. The methods were first applied to a synthetic example of noise-corrupted data and then to two field surveys carried out in Italy. Real data from the first survey refer to a TDEM sounding acquired for groundwater prospection over a known stratigraphy. The data set from the second survey deals with the characterization of a geothermal reservoir. The resulting resistivity models are quantitatively compared to provide a thorough overview of the performances of the algorithms. The comparative analysis reveals that PSO and GWO perform better than GA. GA yields the highest data misfit and an ineffective minimization of the objective function. PSO and GWO provide similar outcomes in terms of both resistivity distribution and data misfits, thus providing compelling evidence that both the emerging GWO and the established PSO are highly valid tools for stochastic inverse modeling in geophysics. | en |
