	abstract = {While recent work has shown that conditional neural networks can be used to effectuate prior-to-posterior mappings during ensemble Kalman filtering, their accuracy relies on the quality of the training ensemble, consisting of the simulated time-advanced nonlinear state and possibly nonlinear observations. Its precision also depends on the generative neural networks{\textquoteright} ability to generalize. In this work, we will report progress on how to make our Digital Twin more robust with respect to distribution shifts and modeling errors, e.g. due to erroneous choices for the physics within the Forecast Step. To this end, we will follow a two-pronged approach consisting of augmenting the Forecast step, e.g. by including different models for the rock physics that map the Digital Twin{\textquoteright}s state to seismic properties, and by adding more physics during the prior-to-posterior mapping. In its current implementation, training of our Digital Twin{\textquoteright}s neural networks relies on relative low-fidelity amortization of the Forecast Ensemble, which is susceptible to distribution shifts. By conducting non-amortized inference informed by the physics and low-fidelity prior-to-posterior mapping, we propose an approach that is more robust than the current implementation of the Digital Twin.},

	title = {A Digital Twin for Geological Carbon Storage with Controlled Injectivity},
	year = {2024},
	month = {11},
	abstract = {We present an uncertainty-aware Digital Twin (DT) for geologic carbon storage (GCS), capable of handling multimodal time-lapse data and controlling CO 2  injectivity to mitigate reservoir fracturing risks. In GCS, DT represents virtual replicas of subsurface systems that incorporate real-time data and advanced generative Artificial Intelligence (genAI) techniques, including neural posterior density estimation via simulation-based inference and sequential Bayesian inference. These methods enable the effective monitoring and control of CO 2  storage projects, addressing challenges such as subsurface complexity, operational optimization, and risk mitigation. By integrating diverse monitoring data, e.g., geophysical well observations and imaged seismic, DT can bridge the gaps between seemingly distinct fields like geophysics and reservoir engineering. In addition, the recent advancements in genAI also facilitate DT with principled uncertainty quantification. Through recursive training and inference, DT utilizes simulated current state samples, e.g., CO 2  saturation, paired with corresponding geophysical field observations to train its neural networks and enable posterior sampling upon receiving new field data. However, it lacks decision-making and control capabilities, which is necessary for full DT functionality. This study aims to demonstrate how DT can inform decision-making processes to prevent risks such as cap rock fracturing during CO 2  storage operations.},
