	abstract = {We present an uncertainty-aware Digital Twin (DT) for geologic carbon storage (GCS), capable of handling multimodal time-lapse data and controlling CO2 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 CO2 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., CO2 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 CO2 storage operations.},

	abstract = {Common-image gathers (CIGs) are pivotal in migration-velocity analysis (MVA). However, MVA is often hindered by the computational burden of traditional migration methods. To bypass these limitations, we introduce a neural-surrogate learning approach that utilizes Fourier Neural Operators (FNOs, Li et al. 2020) to accelerate MVA. Following the velocity-continuation scheme of Siahkoohi, Louboutin, and Herrmann (2022), we train a survey-specific FNO to map the CIGs associated with one migration-velocity model to another without remigration. This methodology leverages the capacity of FNOs to approximate complex PDE-based mappings, rendering computational cost at inference negligible, thereby expediting MVA. By enabling rapid generation and evaluation of CIGs across various velocity models, it offers a pathway to quickly examine velocity models according to preferred properties and to quantify uncertainties in imaged reflectivities at the same time. Additionally, this methodology paves the way for inverse design optimization, updating velocity models to produce CIGs with desirable characteristics.},

	abstract = {Time-lapse seismic monitoring of carbon storage and sequestration is often challenging because the time-lapse signature of the growth of CO$_2$ plumes is weak in amplitude and therefore difficult to detect seismically. This situation is compounded by the fact that the surveys are often coarsely sampled and not replicated to reduce costs. As a result, images obtained for different vintages (baseline and monitor surveys) often contain artifacts that may be attributed wrongly to time-lapse changes. To address these issues, we propose to invert the baseline and monitor surveys jointly. By using the joint recovery model, we exploit information shared between multiple time-lapse surveys. Contrary to other time-lapse methods, our approach does not rely on replicating the surveys to detect time-lapse changes. To illustrate this advantage, we present a numerical sensitivity study where CO$_2$ is injected in a realistic synthetic model. This model is representative of the geology in the southeast of the North Sea, an area currently considered for carbon sequestration. Our example demonstrates that the joint recovery model improves the quality of time-lapse images allowing us to monitor the CO$_2$ plume seismically.},

Yet, due to their redundant information, monochromatic EIVs exhibit a low-rank structure that allows us to get a good approximation at a computational cost proportional to the rank k , while conventional techniques require at least the number of sources. Such low-rank factorized EIVs are computed thanks to the randomized singular values decomposition (SVD) algorithm. However, recent developments on low-rank approximations of EIVs raise two major questions. First, monochromatic EIVs rely on time-harmonic wave equation solvers, which do not scale well to realistic 3D models. Second, the rank of the monochromatic EIVs increases with the frequency, which yields increasing computational costs and storage. Here, we propose a construction approach based on a time-domain finite-difference wave-equation solver with time stepping, which is combined to power iteration schemes in the randomized SVD algorithm to accelerate the decay of the singular values. We compare the performances of simultaneous iterations, block-Krylov iterations and the original randomized SVD on the computation of the EIV for a small section of the Marmousi model. Then, we show further results on the full Marmousi model to validate our approach.},

In Marine data however, these applications rely on the success of a pre-imaging separation of primaries and multiples, which can be modeled as a multi-dimensional convolution between the vertical derivative of the surface-free Green{\textquoteright}s function and the down-going receiver wavefield. Instead of imaging the primaries and multiples separately, we implement the LS-RTM of the total down-going wavefield by combining areal source injection and linearized Born modelling, where strong surface related multiples are generated from a strong density variation at the ocean bottom. The advantage including surface related multiples in LS-RTM is the extra illumination we obtain from these multiples without incurring additional computational costs related to carrying out multi-dimensional convolutions part of conventional multiple prediction procedures. Even though we are able to avert these computational costs, our approach shares the large costs of LSRTM. We reduce these costs by combining randomized source subsampling with our sparsity-promoting imaging technology, which produces artifact-free, high-resolution images, with the surface-related multiples migrated properly.},

Least-squares RTM (LS-RTM) on the other hand, is capable of obtaining true-amplitude images as solutions of $\ell_2$-norm norm minimization problems by fitting the synthetic and observed reflection data. The shortcoming of this approach is that solutions of these $\ell_2$ problems are typically smoothed, tend to be overfitted, and computationally too expensive because it requires compared to standard RTM too many iterations. By working with randomized subsets of data only, the computational costs of LS-RTM can be brought down to an acceptable level while producing artifact-free high-resolution images without overfitting the data. While initial results of these "compressive imaging" methods were encouraging various open issues remain including guaranteed convergence, algorithmic complexity of the solver, and lack of on-the-fly source estimation for LS-RTMs with wave-equation solvers based on time-stepping. By including on-the-fly source-time function estimation into the method of Linearized Bregman (LB), on which we reported before, we tackle all these issues resulting in a easy-to-implement algorithm that offers flexibility in the trade-off between the number of iterations and the number of wave-equation solves per iteration for a fixed total number of wave-equation solves. Application of our algorithm on a 2D synthetic shows that we are able to obtain high-resolution images, including accurate estimates of the wavelet, for a single pass through the data. The produced image, which is by virtue of the inversion deconvolved with respect to the wavelet, is roughly of the same quality as the image obtained given the correct source function.},

In this paper, we introduce a work flow to predict the groundroll by interferometry and then separate the groundroll in the curvelet domain. Thus workflow is similar to the workflow of surface-related multiple elimination (SRME). By exploiting the adaptability and sparsity of curvelets, we are able to significantly improve the separation of groundroll in comparison to results yielded by frequency-domain adaptive subtraction methods. We provide synthetic data example to illustrate our claim.},

These surface waves, termed as ground roll, overlay important reflector information in both the t-x and f-k domains. Standard techniques of ground-roll removal commonly alter reflector information. We propose the use of the curvelet domain as a sparsifying transform in which to preform signal-separation techniques that preserves reflector information while increasing ground-roll removal. We look at how this method preforms on synthetic data for which we can build quantitative results and a real field data set.},

	abstract = {In this abstract, we present a novel primary-multiple separation scheme which makes use of the sparsity of both primaries and multiples in a transform domain, such as the curvelet transform, to provide estimates of each. The proposed algorithm utilizes seismic data as well as the output of a preliminary step that provides (possibly) erroneous predictions of the multiples. The algorithm separates the signal components, i.e., the primaries and multiples, by solving an optimization problem that assumes noisy input data and can be derived from a Bayesian perspective. More precisely, the optimization problem can be arrived at via an assumption of a weighted Laplacian distribution for the primary and multiple coefficients in the transform domain and of white Gaussian noise contaminating both the seismic data and the preliminary prediction of the multiples, which both serve as input to the algorithm. \copyright2007 Society of Exploration Geophysicists},

	abstract = {We have effectively identified and removed ground roll through a two-step process. The first step is to identify the major components of the ground roll through various methods including multiscale separation, directional or frequency filtering or by any other method that identifies the ground roll. Given this estimate for ground roll, the recorded signal is separated during the second step through a block-coordinate relaxation method that seeks the sparsest set for weighted curvelet coefficients of the ground roll and the sought-after reflectivity. The combination of these two methods allows us to separate out the ground roll signal while preserving the reflector information. Since our method is iterative, we have control of the separation process. We successfully tested our algorithm on a real data set with a complex ground roll and reflector structure.},
