	abstract = {Least-squares reverse-time migration faces difficulties when it inverts the data containing strong components related to density variation with velocity-only Born modeling operator. The strong density perturbation will be inverted as strong dummy velocity perturbations, which influence the amplitudes and phase of the velocity perturbations in the inverted model. The traditional method is to invert the additional density variations by developing Born operator with respect to both density and velocity or modify the image condition. In this work, we develop a matched-filter based LS-RTM for velocity-only Born modeling operator, which removes the artifacts in the imaging created by the strong density variation. This method doesn{\textquoteright}t call for extra work of finite difference stencil and is more general. In the experiment part, we use a complex discontinuous layered medium with strong density variations at the ocean bottom, and show the efficacy of the propose formulation.},

	abstract = {Spatial Nyquist sampling rate, which is proportional to the apparent subsurface velocity, is the key deciding cost factor for conventional seismic acquisition. Due to the lower shear wave velocity compared with compressional waves, finer spatial sampling is required to properly record the earlier, which increases the acquisition costs. This is one of the reasons why shear waves are usually not considered in practice. To avoid having the Nyquist criterion as the deciding cost factor and to utilize multicomponent data to its available full extent, we propose acquiring randomly undersampled ocean bottom seismic data. Each component can then be interpolated separately, followed by elastic decomposition to recover up- and down-going S-waves. Instead, we jointly interpolate and decompose the recorded multicomponent data by solving one sparsity promoting optimization problem. This way we ensure that the relative amplitudes of the multicomponent data is preserved. We compare two sparsifying transforms: the curvelet transform and the frequency-wavenumber transform. Another key cost deciding factor for seismic acquisition is the efficiency of acquiring data. This calls for simultaneous acquisition, which requires a source separation step. Similarly, instead of taking a two-step approach, we perform a sparsity-promoting joint source separation decomposition. Results on economically and efficiently acquired synthetic data of both joint methods show their ability of reconstructing accurate up- and down-going S-waves.},

This allows for a more tractable procedure that can robustly handle large scale, highly oscillatory and critically subsampled seismic data sets.

	abstract = {Vouching for higher levels of repeatability in acquisition and processing of time-lapse (4D) seismic data has become the standard with oil and gas contractor companies, with significant investment in the design of acquisition systems and processing algorithms that attempt to address some of the current 4D challenges, in particular, imaging weak 4D signals. Recent developments from the field of compressive sensing have shown the benefits of variants of randomized sampling in marine seismic acquisition and its impact for the future of seismic exploration. Following these developments, we show that the requirement for accurate survey repetition in time-lapse seismic data acquisition can be waived provided we solve a sparsity-promoting convex optimization program that makes use of the shared component between the baseline and monitor data. By setting up a framework for inversion of the stacked sections of a time-lapse data, given the pre-stack data volumes, we are able to extract 4D signals with relatively highfidelity from significant subsamplings. Our formulation is applied to time-lapse data that has been acquired with different source/receiver geometries, paving the way for an efficient approach to dealing with time-lapse data acquired with initially poor repeatability levels, provided the survey geometry details are known afterwards.},

The proposed approach is suitable for large scale problems, since it avoids SVD computations and uses a low-rank factorized formulation instead. We illustrate the advantages of the new HSS approach by interpolating a seismic line from the Gulf of Suez and compare the reconstruction with conventional rank minimization.},
