In this letter, two machine learning algorithms are improved, including a sample-compressed neural network algorithm for magnetotelluric (MT) inversion and an adaptive-clustering analysis algorithm for boundary demarcation. MT is widely used in deep geological structure exploration; however, data processing and interpretation still need to be further improved. Inverting the underground electrical structure model from the surface electromagnetic response is a highly nonlinear optimization problem. Common quasi-linear algorithms rely on the initial model and are easy to converge to a local minimum. In addition, demarcating the boundary and attributes of the abnormal bodies according to the inversion results is often manual, inefficient, and haphazard. The validity of the above two machine learning methods is proved by using the simulated data and the actual data. The new algorithms can improve the efficiency and automation of MT data inversion imaging.
