Abstract
An enhanced multi-point statistical (MPS) simulation is disclosed. A multiple-grid simulation approach is used which has been modified from a conventional MPS approach to decrease the size of a data search template, saving a significant amount of memory and cpu-time during the simulation. Features used to decrease the size of the data search template include: (1) using intermediary sub-grids in the multiple-grid simulation approach, and (2) selecting a data template that is preferentially constituted by previously simulated nodes. The combination of these features allows saving a significant amount of memory and cpu-time over previous MPS algorithms, yet ensures that large-scale training structures are captured and exported to the simulation exercise.
