Abstract

A method includes positioning a downhole tool in a borehole formed in a subsurface formation, wherein the downhole tool comprises a plurality of calipers arranged around a circumference of the downhole tool. The method includes detecting, using the plurality of calipers, a plurality of standoff measurements at different rotation angles and determining a plurality of apparent diameters of the borehole for the different rotation angles of the downhole tool based on the plurality of standoff measurements and at least one of a radius and a diameter of the downhole tool. The method includes determining a probability function based on the plurality of apparent diameters and determining a shape of the borehole based on the probability function.
