A method for transforming a fuzzy logic system into a neural network, where, in order to simulate membership functions, sigmoid functions are linked together in such a way that, even after the optimization of the neural network, back-transformation of the neural network into a, fuzzy logic system is possible. The advantage of the method described is that a fuzzy logic system can be transformed, in particular component by component, into a neural network and the latter can then be optimized as a whole, i.e. all the components together. The possibility of back-transforming the trained neural network ultimately means that an optimized fuzzy logic system can be obtained. This advantageously makes it possible to use, in particular, standardized fuzzy system software for describing the optimized fuzzy logic system.
Logging systems and methods are disclosed to reduce usage of radioisotopic sources. Some embodiments comprise collecting at least one output log of a training well bore from measurements with a radioisotopic source; collecting at least one input log of the training well bore from measurements by a non-radioisotopic logging tool; training a neural network to predict the output log from the at least one input log; collecting at least one input log of a development well bore from measurements by the non-radioisotopic logging tool; and processing the at least one input log of the development well bore to synthesize at least one output log of the development well bore. The output logs may include formation density and neutron porosity logs.
