	abstract = {We present the Seismic Laboratory for Imaging and Modeling/Monitoring (SLIM) open-source software framework for computational geophysics and, more generally, inverse problems involving the wave-equation (e.g., seismic and medical ultrasound), regularization with learned priors, and learned neural surrogates for multiphase flow simulations. By integrating multiple layers of abstraction, our software is designed to be both readable and scalable. This allows researchers to easily formulate their problems in an abstract fashion while exploiting the latest developments in high-performance computing. We illustrate and demonstrate our design principles and their benefits by means of building a scalable prototype for permeability inversion from time-lapse crosswell seismic data, which aside from coupling of wave physics and multiphase flow, involves machine learning.},

	abstract = {Bayesian inference for high-dimensional inverse problems is challenged by the computational costs associated with the forward operator during posterior sampling, as well as the selection of an appropriate prior distribution that encodes our prior knowledge about the unknown. Amortized variational inference addresses these challenges by pretraining a conditional normalizing flow (cNF) that approximates the posterior distribution over the existing model and data joint samples where the prior is implicitly learned from the data. When fed data and normally distributed latent samples as input, the pretrained cNF provides posterior samples for previously unseen data virtually for free. The accuracy of this purely data-driven approach, however, is dependent on the availability of high-fidelity training data, which is rarely the case with geophysical inverse problems, due to the highly heterogeneous structure of the Earth. To overcome this challenge and to minimize the negative bias of data distribution shifts during inference, we propose learning a physics-based correction to the cNF latent distribution to provide a more accurate approximation to the posterior distribution. We accomplish this by parameterizing the cNF latent distribution by a Gaussian distribution with an unknown mean and diagonal covariance, which are estimated by minimizing the Kullback-Leibler divergence between the corrected posterior distribution estimate and the true posterior distribution. For a relatively well-trained cNF, this approach provides reliable posterior samples with a limited computational cost while remaining bound to data and physics. We showcase the computational gains of this approach on a "quasi" real seismic imaging example.},

	month = {11},
	abstract = {In inverse problems, uncertainty quantification (UQ) deals with a probabilistic description of the solution nonuniqueness and data noise sensitivity. Setting seismic imaging into a Bayesian framework allows for a principled way of studying uncertainty by solving for the model posterior distribution. Imaging, however, typically constitutes only the first stage of a sequential workflow, and UQ becomes even more relevant when applied to subsequent tasks that are highly sensitive to the inversion outcome. In this paper, we focus on how UQ trickles down to horizon tracking for the determination of stratigraphic models and investigate its sensitivity with respect to the imaging result. As such, the main contribution of this work consists in a data-guided approach to horizon tracking uncertainty analysis. This work is fundamentally based on a special reparameterization of reflectivity, known as {\textquotedblleft}deep prior{\textquotedblright}. Feasible models are restricted to the output of a convolutional neural network with a fixed input, while weights and biases are Gaussian random variables. Given a deep prior model, the network parameters are sampled from the posterior distribution via a Markov chain Monte Carlo method, from which the conditional mean and point-wise standard deviation of the inferred reflectivities are approximated. For each sample of the posterior distribution, a reflectivity is generated, and the horizons are tracked automatically. In this way, uncertainty on model parameters naturally translates to horizon tracking. As part of the validation for the proposed approach, we verified that the estimated confidence intervals for the horizon tracking coincide with geologically complex regions, such as faults.},
