	abstract = {In marine exploration seismology, surface-related multiples are usually treated as noise mainly because subsequent processing steps, such as migration velocity analysis and imaging, require multiple-free data. Failure to remove these wavefield components from the data may lead to erroneous estimates for migration velocity or result in strong coherent artefacts that interfere with the imaged reflectors. However, multiples can carry complementary information compared to primaries, as they interact with the free surface and are therefore exposed more to the subsurface. Recent work has shown that when processed correctly multiples can improve seismic illumination. Given a sufficiently accurate background velocity model and an estimate for the source signature, we propose a new and computationally efficient linearized inversion procedure based on two-way wave equations, which produces accurate images of the subsurface from the total upgoing wavefield including surface-related multiples. Modelling of the surface-related multiples in the proposed method derives from the well-known surface-related multiple elimination method. We incur a minimal overhead from incorporating the multiples by having the wave-equation solver carry out the multiple predictions via the inclusion of an areal source instead of expensive dense matrix-matrix multiplications. By using subsampling techniques, we obtain high-quality true-amplitude least-squares migrated images at computational costs of roughly a single reverse-time migration (RTM) with all the data. These images are virtually free of coherent artefacts from multiples. Proper inversion of the multiples would be computationally infeasible without using these techniques that significantly bring down the cost. By promoting sparsity in the curvelet domain and using rerandomization, out method gains improved robustness to errors in the background velocity model, and errors incurred in the linearization of the wave equation with respect to the model. We demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method compared to the conventional RTM using realistic synthetic examples.},

	abstract = {Wave-equation based seismic inversion can be formulated as a nonlinear inverse problem where the medium properties are obtained via minimization of a least- squares misfit functional. The demand for higher resolution models in more geologically complex areas drives the need to develop techniques that explore the special structure of full-waveform inversion to reduce the computational burden and to regularize the inverse problem. We meet these goals by using ideas from compressive sensing and stochastic optimization to design a novel Gauss-Newton method, where the updates are computed from random subsets of the data via curvelet-domain sparsity promotion. Application of this idea to a realistic synthetic shows improved results compared to quasi-Newton methods, which require passes through all data. Two different subset sampling strategies are considered: randomized source encoding, and drawing sequential shots firing at random source locations from marine data with missing near and far offsets. In both cases, we obtain excellent inversion results compared to conventional methods at reduced computational costs.},
