	abstract = {Full-waveform inversion (FWI) is a non-linear procedure to es- timate subsurface rock parameters from surface measurements of induced seismic waves. This procedure is ill-posed in nature and hence, requires regularization to enhance some structure depending on the prior information. Recently, Total-variation (TV) regularization has gained popularity due to its ability to produce blocky structures. Contrary to this, the earth behave more like a piecewise smooth function. TV regularization fails to enforce this prior information into FWI. We propose a Mumford-Shah functional to incorporate the piecewise smooth spatial structure in the FWI procedure. The resulting opti- mization problem is solved by a splitting method. We show the improvement in results against TV regularization on two synthetic camembert examples.},

	abstract = {Conventional seismic full waveform inversion (FWI) estimates a velocity model by matching the two-way predicted data with the observed data. The non-linearity of the problem and the complexity of the Earth{\textquoteright}s subsurface, which results in complex wave propagation may lead to unsatisfactory inversion results. Moreover, having inaccurate overburden models, i.e water velocity model in the ocean bottom acquisition setting, may lead to erroneous velocity models. In order to obtain better velocity models, we simplify the FWI problem by decomposing the total two-way observed and predicted wavefields into one-way wavefields at the receiver locations using acoustic wavefield decomposition. We then propose to fit the less-complex one-way wavefield to obtain a velocity model that contains valuable information about the overburden. We use this inverted velocity model as a better initial model for the inversion using the other more-complex one-way wavefield. We demonstrate our proposed algorithm on acoustic non-inverse crime synthetic data produced from the Marmousi2 model. The proposed method provides improved inversion results compared with conventional FWI due to properly accounting for separate model updates from the up- and down-going wavefields.},

	abstract = {Modern-day oil and gas exploration, especially in areas of complex geology such as fault belts and sub-salt areas, is an increasingly expensive and risky endeavour. Typically long-offset and dense sampling seismic data are required for subsequent shot based processing procedures, e.g. wave-equation based inversion (WEI) and surface-related multiple elimination (SRME). However, these strict requirements result in an exponential growth in data volume size and prohibitive demands on computational resources, given the multidimensional nature of the data volumes. Moreover the physical constraints and cost limitations impose restrictions on acquiring fully sampled data. In this work, we propose to invert our large-scale data from a set of subsampled measurements, resulting in an estimate of the true volume in a compressed low-rank tensor format. Rather than expanding the data to its fully-sampled form for later downstream processes, we demonstrate how to use this compressed data directly via on-the-fly common shot or receiver gathers extraction. The combination of massive compression and fast on demand data reconstruction of 3D shot or receiver gathers leads to a substantial reduction in memory costs but with minimal effects on results in the subsequent processing procedures. We demonstrate the effective implementation of our proposed framework on full-waveform inversion on a 3D seismic synthetic data set generated from a Overthrust model.},

	abstract = {The use of time-lapse seismic data to monitor changes in the subsurface has become standard practice in industry. In addition, full-waveform inversion has also been extended to time-lapse seismic to obtain useful time-lapse information. The computational cost of this method are becoming more pronounced as the volume of data increases. Therefore, it is necessary to develop fast inversion algorithms that can also give improved time-lapse results. Rather than following existing joint inversion algorithms, we are motivated by a joint recovery model which exploits the common information among the baseline and monitor data. We propose a joint inversion framework, leveraging ideas from distributed compressive sensing and the modified Gauss-Newton method for full-waveform inversion, by using the shared information in the time-lapse data. Our results on a realistic synthetic example highlight the benefits of our joint inversion approach over a parallel inversion method that does not exploit the shared information. Preliminary results also indicate that our formulation can address time-lapse data with inconsistent acquisition geometries.},
