	abstract = {Data fitting based on a wave equation model has driven the modern development in seismic imaging, and it is now relevant for large scale inversion. A wider adoption is currently being limited by available computational resources and the classical limitations of non-linear optimization, which often produces suboptimal local minima. A class of methods based on the inexact solution of the wave equation, known as wavefield reconstruction inversion, have shown remarkable robustness towards local minima, however the solvers required for the inexact wave equation scale badly to 3D problems. We propose a reformulation of wavefield reconstruction inversion which involves the solution of the classical time-domain wave equation, and it is practical for large-scale problems. Applications to tilted-transverse isotropy synthetic datasets clearly demonstrate the advantage over traditional full-waveform inversion.},

	abstract = {Wavefield reconstruction inversion is an imaging technique akin to full-waveform inversion, albeit based on a relaxed version of the wave equation. This relaxation aims to beat the multimodality typical of full-waveform inversion. However it prevents the use of time-marching solvers for the augmented equation and, as a consequence, cannot be straightforwardly employed to large 3D problems. In this work, we formulate a dual version of wavefield reconstruction inversion amenable to explicit time-domain solvers, yielding a robust and scalable inversion technique.},

	title = {Tracking the spatial-temporal evolution of fractures by microseismic source collocation},
	year = {2017},
	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {Unlike conventional reservoirs, unconventional plays are not naturally viable for economical production of oil and gas. They require stimulation by injecting high-pressure fluid causing fractures in the rocks. These fractures make the medium more permeable, hence, the extraction of oil and gas becomes feasible. For drilling purposes and to prevent potentially hazardous situations, we need to have good knowledge of the location of these fractures. Also, we need to have good knowledge about how these fractures originated in time. Hydraulic fracturing changes stress in rocks, which results in the emission of microseismic waves. The opening of cracks due to high pressure fluid injection during hydraulic fracturing mainly causes this change in stress in the rocks. Therefore, microseismic events are mostly localized along these fractures and have finite energy along time. To accurately track the evolution of fractures in both space and time, we need to locate closely spaced microseismic events along these fractures activating at very small time intervals. A naive approach can be the back propagation of the observed data to find out a point in space and time where maximum focusing of back propagating energy occurs. This point corresponds to the location and origin time of a microseismic source. This approach, although simpler, suffers from low resolution and requires scanning of complete 4D volume (3D in space and 1D in time). Hence, this method can be challenging when there are multiple closely spaced microseismic sources originating at different times. We in this work propose a sparsity promotion based method that can locate closely spaced microseismic events, with spatial separation as low as within half a wavelength, activating at small time intervals. We simultaneously estimate the origin time of microseismic events by estimating their source time functions. Our method exploits the fact that microseismic events are localized in space and have finite energy. We use accelerated Linearized Bregman algorithm with a preconditioning operator to arrive at a computationally feasible scheme.},

	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {It is well known that low frequency data are essential to the success of the Full-Waveform Inversion. Field data from a usual marine acquisition, however, typically lack reliable low frequencies due to the existing physical limitations. One research direction focuses on studying low-frequency extrapolation, the process of extending reliable frequency bands of the raw data towards the lower end of the spectrum. We propose two optimization problems, by solving which low frequencies can be made out of the high SNR high frequency component. We present both theoretical explanation and numerical experiments to demonstrate the efficacy as well as limitation of these methods.},
