	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {Solution of the Helmholtz equation is the main computational burden of full-waveform inversion in the frequency domain. For this task we employ the CARP-CG algorithm (Gordon \& Gordon 2010), an iterative solver that preconditions the original Helmholtz system into an equivalent symmetric positive definite system and then applies the method of conjugate gradients. Forming the matrix for the new system is not necessary as its multiplicative action on a vector is implemented using a series of projections onto the rows of the original system. Our contribution is implementing CARP-CG for a host + accelerator (FPGA) computing environment. The computational paradigm is one of dataflow: vector and matrix elements are streamed from memory through the accelerator which applies the row projections. The advantage of an FPGA to process streams of data is that unless the algorithm is memory bandwidth limited, computation time is directly proportional to the amount of data. The complexity of the algorithm implemented on the FPGA is irrelevant since all the operations programmed onto the FPGA happen in the same clock tick. In contrast, on a CPU, more complex algorithms require more clock ticks as the instructions are executed sequentially, or with only a small amount of parallelism. Ongoing work porting the CARP-CG algorithm to the accelerator is presented.},

One peculiar feature of this approach is the theoretical independence of the spectrum of the free-surface operator from the spectrum of the observed data. The SRME approach requires coarsely sampled data to be low-pass filtered sufficiently in order to avoid aliasing in multiple contribution gathers, which in turn limits the temporal resolution of the demultipled result. Conversely, such limitations in temporal resolution do not directly apply to the inversion solution of EPSI. This property can in turn be exploited both to significantly lower the cost of EPSI and to mitigate the effect of under sampled data in a controlled way.},

This exposes an important model assumption indicating why analysis might outperform synthesis, for which careful consideration in seismic is necessary, and the need for models such as the cosparse model.

By observing different under-sampled and random measurements from each vintage, corresponding to different acquisition geometries, we show that one can still detect the 4D change in time using recent ideas from Compressed sensing.

The penalty method requires only one solution of an overdetermined linear system, in the least-squares sense. In this talk some numerical properties of this linear system will be exposed. The penalty method for PDE-constrained optimization involves a parameter, balancing the data misfit and PDE-misfit parts of the objective functional.

The multiples are handled by introducing an areal source term that includes the upgoing wavefield. We update the source signature for each iteration using a variable projection method. The resulting algorithm removes imaging artifacts from surface-related multiples, estimates and removes the imprint of the source, recovers true amplitudes, is fast, and robust to linearization errors by virtue of the statistical independence of the subsets of data we are working with at each iteration.},

	abstract = {Seismic waveform inversion aims at obtaining detailed estimates of subsurface medium parameters, such as soundspeed, from seismic data. A formulation in the frequency-domain leads to an optimization problem constrained by a Helmholtz equation with many right-hand sides. Application of this technique in 3D precludes the use of factorization techniques to solve the Helmholtz equation due the large number of gridpoints and the bandwidth of the matrix. While many sophisticated pre-conditioned iterative techniques have been developed for the Helmholtz equation, they often include model-specific tuning parameters and are thus not very attractive for inversion since the medium parameters change from one iteration to the next. In this paper, we propose a method for 3D seismic waveform inversion that addresses both the need to efficiently solve the Helmholtz equation as well as the computational cost induced by the many right-hand sides. To solve the Helmholtz equation, we consider a simple generic preconditioned iterative method (CARP-CG) that is well-suited for inversion because of its robustness. We extend this method to a block-iterative method that can efficiently handle multiple right-hand sides. To reduce the computational cost of of the overall optimization procedure, we use recently proposed techniques from stochastic optimization that allow us to work with approximate gradient information. These approximations are obtained by evaluating only a small portion of the right-hand sides and/or by solving the PDE approximately. We propose heuristics to adaptively determine the required accuracy of the PDE solves and the sample-size and illustrate the algorithms on synthetic benchmark models.

The method takes measured data from a physical system as input and minimizes an objective function that depends on an unknown model for the physical parameters, fields, and additional nuisance parameters such as the source function. The invention consists of a minimization procedure involving a cost functional comprising of a data-misfit term and a penalty term that measures how accurately the fields satisfy the PDE. The method is composed of two alternating steps, namely the solution of a system of equations forming the discretization of the data-augmented PDE, and the solution of physical model parameters from the PDE itself given the field that solves the data-augmented system and an estimate for the sources. Compared to all-at-once approaches to PDE-constrained optimization, there is no need to update and store the fields for all sources leading to significant memory savings. As in the all-at-once approach, the proposed method explores a larger search space and is therefore less sensitive to initial estimates for the physical model parameters. Contrary to the reduced formulation, the proposed method does not require the solution of an adjoint PDE, effectively halving the number of PDE solves and memory requirement. As in the reduced formulation, fields can be computed independently and aggregated, possibly in parallel.},

	year = {2013},
	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {The recently proposed penalty method promises to mitigate some of the non-linearity inherent in full-waveform inversion by relaxing the requirement that the wave-equation needs to be solved exactly. The basic workflow of this new method is as follows; i) solve an overdetermined wave-equation (the data-augmented wave-equation), where the data serves as additional constraints for the wavefields, ii) compute the wavefield-residual by substituting this wavefield in the wave-equation, and iii) correlate the wavefield with the wavefield-residual to obtain a model-update. As opposed to the conventional workflow, no explicit adjoint solve is needed to compute the model-update. However, instead of solving a wave-equation, we need to solve a data-augmented wave-equation. In this talk we explore some of the challenges of solving this data-augmented wave-equation and review some possible solution strategies for both time and frequency-domain applications.},

	abstract = {High-dimensional data, alternatively known as tensors, occurs in a variety of seismic problems. By exploiting the fact that seismic data can be well represented as a structured tensor, we design algorithms that operate on much lower dimensional parameters. In this talk, we will review some recent developments in interpolating seismic data volumes in the so-called Hierarchical Tucker format as well as demonstrate the need for such formats when tackling high-dimensional problems such as Uncertainty Quantification.},

	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {In 3D case, there is much more data and modeling is much more expensive. As a result, parallel computing is very important for 3D full-waveform inversion. Both domain decomposition and data decomposition need a large number of parallel computing resources. However, programs based on parallel MATLAB suffer from the limitation of licenses. In order to obtain a MATLAB licenses free solution, we use SWIFT, which is a fast and easy parallel scripting language. Once the original Mat file is complied to an executable file, SWIFT can run the code inside the executable file in parallel without using parallel MATLAB. We use the SWIFT to compute the object functions and gradients of different shots in parallel, and test the parallel 3D FWI code with overthrust data. This is joint work with Thomas Lai, Harsh Juneja, Bas Peters.},

	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {Current efforts towards dense shot (and/or receiver) sampling and full azimuthal coverage to produce higher-resolution images have led to the deployment of multiple source vessels across the survey area. A step ahead from multi-source seismic acquisition is simultaneous or blended acquisition where different source arrays/vessels fire shots at near-simultaneous or slightly random times. Seismic data acquisition with simultaneous (or blended) sources has helped improve acquisition efficiency and mitigate acquisition related costs. Deblending then aims to recover unblended data, as acquired during conventional acquisition, from blended data since many processing techniques rely on full, regular sampling. We present a simultaneous/blended marine acquisition setup where shots fire at significantly jittered instances in time resulting in jittered shot locations for a given speed of the source vessel. The conventional, unblended data is recovered from the blended, jittered/irregular data by sparsity-promoting inversion using the non-equispaced fast discrete curvelet transform. The optimization scheme aims to deblend the blended data along with regularization and interpolation to a (finer) regular grid.},

Simultaneous shots are also used to reduce the computational costs.},

	abstract = {Consider the standard compressed sensing problem. We want to recover sparse compressible aorsignal from few linear measurements. In this talk we investigate recovery performance when we have prior information about the support, i.e., the indices of the non-zero entries, of the signal to be recovered. First we briefly review the results of "weighted $\ell_p$ minimization algorithm with p = 1 and 0 < p < 1". Then we derive a weighted approximate message passing (AMP) algorithm which incorporates prior support information into the AMP algorithm. We empirically show that this algorithm recovers sparse signals significantly faster than weighted $\ell_1$ minimization. We also introduce a reweighting scheme for AMP and weighted AMP which, we observe, substantially improves the recovery conditions of these algorithms. We illustrate our results with extensive numerical experiments on synthetic data and seismic data reconstruction.},

	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {As shown in past, we can leverage the ideas from the field of compressed sensing to cast problems like seismic data interpolation or sequential shot data recovery from simultaneous data, as a compressed sensing problem. In this work we will show how we can borrow the same ideas of compressed sensing and cast these problems as matrix completion problems. Instead of sparsity we will show that we can exploit the low-rank structure of seismic data to solve these problems. One of the impediments in rank-minimization problem is the computation of singular values. We will also show how we can solve the rank minimization problems SVD-free. The practical application is divided into three parts: 1. In case of sequential seismic data acquisition, how jittered subsampling helps to recover the better quality data as compared to random subsampling. 2. How the incorporation of reciprocity principles help to enhance the quality of recovered fully sampled data. 3. How we can recover the sequential source data from simultaneous source data.},
