	abstract = {Stochastic optimization is key to efficient inversion in PDE-constrained optimization. Using {\textquoteleft}simultaneous shots{\textquoteright}, or random superposition of source terms, works very well in simple acquisition geometries where all sources see all receivers, but this rarely occurs in practice. We develop an approach that interpolates data to an ideal acquisition geometry while solving the inverse problem using simultaneous shots. The approach is formulated as a joint inverse problem, combining ideas from low-rank interpolation with full-waveform inversion. Results using synthetic experiments illustrate the flexibility and efficiency of the approach.},

	abstract = {Simultaneous marine acquisition is an economic way to sample seismic data and speed up acquisition, wherein single or multiple source vessels fire sources at near-simultaneous or slightly random times, resulting in overlapping shot records. The current paradigm for simultaneous towed-streamer marine acquisition incorporates {\textquotedblleft}low variability{\textquotedblright} in source firing times, i.e., 0 <= 1 or 2 s because the sources and receivers are moving. This results in a low degree of randomness in simultaneous data, which is challenging to separate (into its constituent sources) using compressed-sensing-based separation techniques because randomization is key to successful recovery via compressed sensing. We have addressed the challenge of source separation for simultaneous towed-streamer acquisitions via two compressed-sensing-based approaches, i.e., sparsity promotion and rank minimization. We have evaluated the performance of the sparsity-promotion- and rank-minimization-based techniques by simulating two simultaneous towed-streamer acquisition scenarios, i.e., over/under and simultaneous long offset. A field data example from the Gulf of Suez for the over/under acquisition scenario was also developed. We observed that the proposed approaches gave good and comparable recovery qualities of the separated sources, but the rank-minimization technique outperformed the sparsity-promoting technique in terms of the computational time and memory. We also compared these two techniques with the normal-moveout-based median-filtering-type approach, which had comparable results.},

	abstract = {As conventional oil and gas fields are maturing, our profession is challenged to come up with the next-generation of more and more sophisticated exploration tools. In exploration seismology this trend has led to the emergence of wave-equation based inversion technologies such as reverse-time migration and full-waveform inversion. While significant progress has been made in wave-equation based inversion, major challenges remain in the development of robust and computationally feasible workflows that give reliable results in geophysically challenging areas that may include ultra-low shear velocity zones or high-velocity salt. Moreover, sub-salt production carries risks that needs mitigation, which raises the bar from creating sub-salt images to inverting for sub-salt overpressure.},

	abstract = {Rank penalizing techniques are an important direction in seismic inverse problems, since they allow improved recovery by exploiting low-rank structure. A major downside of current state of the art techniques is their reliance on the SVD of seismic data structures, which can be prohibitively expensive. Fortunately, recent work allows us to circumvent this problem by working with matrix factorizations. We review a novel approach to rank penalization, and successfully apply it to the seismic interpolation problem by exploiting the low-rank structure of seismic data in the midpoint-offset domain. Experiments for the recovery of 2D monochromatic data matrices and seismic lines represented as 3D volumes support the feasibility and potential of the new approach.},
