Claim One:
1. A method for identifying a plurality of features of interest in a seismic data set, comprising: generating a combined score for each of a plurality of features of interest in a seismic data set, comprising: generating a plurality of scores for a specific feature of interest of the plurality of features of interest, wherein each score of the plurality of scores is representative of the specific feature's agreement with a respective graphical model of a plurality of graphical models, wherein each graphical model is assigned a respective weight, wherein each of the plurality of graphical models comprises one or more attributes and one or more rules stored in a configuration file, wherein generating the plurality of scores for the specific feature of interest comprises comparing a seismic image of the specific feature of interest to the plurality of graphical models; and combining the plurality of scores for the specific feature of interest according to the weights assigned to the plurality of respective graphical models; ranking the plurality of features of interest based on the combined score of each feature of interest; updating the ranking of the plurality of features of interest based on user feedback, wherein updating the ranking based on user feedback comprises performing acts of: (1) presenting a user with a highly-ranking feature of interest of the plurality of features of interest that has not been rated by the user; (2) receiving a user rating for the presented feature of interest (3) updating the respective weights of the plurality of graphical models based on the user rating; (4) updating the combined scores for the plurality of features of interest based on the updated respective weights of the plurality of graphical models; (5) revising the ranking of the plurality of features of interest based on the updated combined scores for the plurality of features of interest; (6) repeating steps (1)-(5) until a termination criterion is met; and (7) outputting the revised ranking of the plurality of features of interest.
