	abstract = {The separation of signal and noise is a key issue in seismic data processing. By noise we refer to the incoherent noise that is present in the data. We use the recently introduced multiscale and multidirectional curvelet transform for suppression of random noise. The curvelet transform decomposes data into directional plane waves that are local in nature. The coherent features of the data occupy the large coefficients in the curvelet domain, whereas the incoherent noise lives in the small coefficients. In other words, signal and noise have minimal overlap in the curvelet domain. This gives us a chance to use curvelets to suppress noise present in data.},

	abstract = {There is an inherent continuity along reflectors of a seismic image. We use the recently introduced multiscale and multidirectional curvelet transform to exploit this continuity along reflectors for cases in which the assumption of spiky reflectivity may not hold. We show that such type of seismic reflectivity can be represented in the curvelet-domain by a vector whose entries decay rapidly. This curvelet-domain compression of reflectivity opens new perspectives towards solving classical problems in seismic processing including the deconvolution problem. In this paper, we present a formulation that seeks curvelet-domain sparsity for non-spiky reflectivity and we compare our results with those of spiky deconvolution.},
