	abstract = {Recent developments in simulation-based inference, like the full-waveform variational inference via subsurface extensions (WISE), enable rapid online estimation of subsurface velocities by leveraging pre-trained models. To achieve this, WISE employs subsurface-offset common image gathers to convert shot data into physics-informed summary statistics. While common image gathers effectively retain critical information even when initial velocity estimates are inaccurate, WISE{\textquoteright}s performance still depends on the assumption that the initial migration-velocity model is a single 1D velocity model. In this work, we present experiments using both 1D and 2D velocity models and develop a stochastic resampling method to generate variations of initial migration-velocity models. This technique allows us to systematically infer alternative velocity models that are consistent with the observed data, while enhancing the posterior sample quality and reducing dependency on the initial velocity model compared to the standard WISE approach.},

	abstract = {Effective geological carbon storage hinges on a deep understanding of CO2 plume behavior. The dynamics of these plumes can be modeled using multiphase flow equations, but their accuracy is tied to a precise permeability model. A significant challenge is that we often lack detailed permeability data, limiting our predictive capabilities. To bridge this gap, we{\textquoteright}ve developed a multiphysics inversion method. This technique inverts for the permeability from observed time-lapse seismic data. Through a case study on the Compass model, we{\textquoteright}ve compared this approach with traditional 4D FWI in forecasting CO2 plume movements. Additionally, our research delves into how different initial permeability models, acquisition setups, and survey frequencies affect the results. Across the board, the inversion method not only enhances our current estimations but also provides valuable insights into future plume dynamics, even without continuous monitoring.},

	year = {2022},
	month = {11},
	abstract = {Numerical surrogates are models which learn to mimic a complex physical process (such as the solution to a PDE produced by a solver) from a set of input/output pairs. Fourier neural operators (FNOs) are a specific type of numerical surrogate which use a learned matched filter to quickly approximate solutions to relatively smooth complex physical processes. In the case of carbon capture sequestration (CCS) technology, FNOs have been shown to well-approximate solutions to the two-phase flow equations, with speedups of 1,000 to 10,000 times at inference time versus a tradtitional solver. This speed combined with the fact that FNOs are differentiable with respect to their input parameters allows for inverse and uncertainty quantification problems to theoretically be solved on real 3D data, a previously intractible task. However, due to the size of the input data, network weights, and optimizer state, FNOs have thus far been limited to small to medium 2D and 3D problems, well below the size of an industry standard such as the Sleipner benchmark. Here we alleviate this problem by proposing a model-parallel FNO which makes use of domain decomposition of the input data and network weights, and exploits architectural features of FNOs to also include a natural form of asynchronous pipeline parallelism. Our network can scale to arbitrary problem sizes on CPU and GPU systems.},

Using cloud infrastructure to recreate conventional HPC clusters is therefore in many cases an infeasible solution for migrating HPC applications to the cloud. As an alternative to the generic lift and shift approach, we consider the specific application of seismic imaging and demonstrate a serverless and event-driven pproach for running large-scale instances of this problem in the cloud. Instead of permanently running compute instances, our workflow is based on a serverless architecture with high throughput batch computing and event-driven computations, in which computational resources are only running as long as they are utilized. We demonstrate that this approach is very flexible and allows for resilient and nested levels of parallelization, including domain decomposition for solving the underlying partial differential equations. While the event-driven approach introduces some overhead as computational resources are repeatedly restarted, it inherently provides resilience to instance shut-downs and allows a significant reduction of cost by avoiding idle instances, thus making the cloud a viable alternative to on-premise clusters for large-scale seismic imaging.},

Medical imaging, on the other hand, opens the possibility for new imaging modalities where outside stimuli, such as laser or radar pulses, can not only be used to identify endogenous optical or thermal contrasts but that these sources can also be used to insonify the medium so that images of the whole specimen can in principle be created.},

However, so far little progress has been made in adapting the cloud for high performance computing (HPC) tasks, such as seismic imaging and inversion. As the cloud does not provide the same type of fast and reliable connections as conventional HPC clusters, porting legacy codes developed for HPC environments to the cloud is ineffective and misses out on an opportunity to take advantage of new technologies presented by the cloud. We present a novel approach of bringing seismic imaging and inversion workflows to the cloud, which does not rely on a traditional HPC environment, but is based on serverless and event-driven computations. Computational resources are assigned dynamically in response to events, thus minimizing idle time and providing resilience to hardware failures. We test our workflow on two large-scale imaging examples and demonstrate that cost-effective HPC in the cloud is possible, but requires careful reconsiderations of how to bring software to the cloud.},

	abstract = {In order to obtain accurate images of the subsurface, anisotropic modeling and imaging is necessary. However, the twenty-one parameter complete wave-equation is too computationally expensive to be of use in this case. The transverse tilted isotropic wave-equation is then the next best feasible representation of the physics to use for imaging. The main complexity arising from transverse tilted isotropic imaging is to model the receiver wavefield (back propagation of the data or data residual) for the imaging condition. Unlike the isotropic or the full physics wave-equations, the transverse tilted isotropic wave-equation is not not self-adjoint. This difference means that time-reversal will not model the correct receiver wavefield and this can lead to incorrect subsurface images. In this work, we derive and implement the adjoint wave-equation to demonstrate the necessity of exact adjoint modeling for anisotropic modeling and compare our result with adjoint-free time-reversed imaging.},

If this starting model is too far from the true model, these derivative-based optimizations will likely end up in local minima and erroneous inversion results. In certain cases, extension of the search space, e.g. by making the wavefields or focused matched sources additional unknowns, has removed some of these non-uniqueness issues but these rely on time-harmonic formulations.
