	abstract = {We present a novel adaptation of a recently developed relatively simple iterative algorithm to solve large-scale sparsity-promoting optimization problems. Our algorithm is particularly suitable to large-scale geophysical inversion problems, such as sparse least-squares reverse-time migration or Kirchoff migration since it allows for a tradeoff between parallel computations, memory allocation, and turnaround times, by working on subsets of the data with different sizes. Comparison of the proposed method for sparse least-squares imaging shows a performance that rivals and even exceeds the performance of state-of-the art one-norm solvers that are able to carry out least-squares migration at the cost of a single migration with all data.},

	abstract = {We implement the Kaczmarz row-projection algorithm (Kaczmarz (1937)) on a CPU host + FPGA accelerator platform using techniques of dataflow programming. This algorithm is then used as the preconditioning step in CGMN, a modified version of the conjugate gradients method (Bj{\"o}rck and Elfving (1979)) that we use to solve the time-harmonic acoustic isotropic constant density wave equation. Using one accelerator we achieve a speed-up of over 2{\texttimes} compared with one Intel core.},

	abstract = {The advent of modern computing has made it possible to do seismic imaging using least-squares reverse-time migration. We obtain superior images by solving an optimization problem that recovers the true-amplitude images. However, its success hinges on overcoming several issues, including overwhelming problem size, unknown source wavelet, and interfering coherent events like multiples. In this abstract, we reduce the problem size by using ideas from compressive sensing, and estimate source wavelet by generalized variable projection. We also demonstrate how to invert for subsurface information encoded in surface-related multiples by incorporating the free-surface operator as an areal source in reverse-time migration. Our synthetic examples show that multiples help to improve the resolution of the image, as well as remove the amplitude ambiguity in wavelet estimation.},

	abstract = {During this talk, we present a computationally efficient (cost of 1-2 RTM{\textquoteright}s with all data) iterative sparsity-promoting inversion framework where surface-related multiples are jointly imaged with primaries and where the source signature is estimated on the fly. Our imaging algorithm is computationally efficient because it works during each iteration with small independent randomized subsets of data. The multiples are handled by introducing an areal source term that includes the upgoing wavefield. We update the source signature for each iteration using a variable projection method. The resulting algorithm removes imaging artifacts from surface-related multiples, estimates and removes the imprint of the source, recovers true amplitudes, is fast, and robust to linearization errors by virtue of the statistical independence of the subsets of data we are working with at each iteration.},

	abstract = {Multiples can provide valuable information that is missing in primaries, and there is a growing interest in using them for seismic imaging. In our earlier work, we proposed to combine primary estimation and migration to image from the total up-going wavefield. The method proves to be effective but computationally expensive. In this abstract, we propose to reduce the computational cost by removing the multi-dimensional convolution required by primary estimation, and reducing the number of PDE solves in migration by introducing simultaneous sources with source renewal. We gain great performance boost without compromising the quality of the image.},

	abstract = {Multiples, especially the surface-related multiples, form a significant part of the total up-going wave- field. If not properly dealt with, they can lead to false reflectors in the final image. So conventionally practitioners remove them prior to migration. Recently research has revealed that multiples can actually provide extra illumination so different methods are proposed to address the issue that how to use multiples in seismic imaging, but with various kinds of limitations. In this abstract, we combine primary estimation and sparsity-promoting migration into one convex-optimization process to include information from multiples. Synthetic examples show that multiples do make active contributions to seismic migration. Also by this combination, we can benefit from better recoveries of the Greens function by using sparsity-promoting algorithms since reflectivity is sparser than the Greens function.},
