	abstract = {Probabilistic approaches to Full-Waveform Inversion (FWI), such as Bayesian ones, traditionally require expensive computations involving many wave-equation solves. To reduce the computational burden at test time, we propose to amortize the computational cost with offline training. After training, we aim to efficiently generate probabilistic FWI solutions with uncertainty. This aim is achieved by exploiting the ability of networks (i.e Normalizing Flows) to learn distributions, such as the Bayesian posterior. The posterior uncertainty is used during training to optimize the receiver sampling.},

	abstract = {Much of AVA analysis relies on characterizing background trends and anomalies in pre-stack seismic data. Analysts reduce a seismic section into a small number of these trends and anomalies, suggesting that a low-dimensional structure can be inferred from the data. We describe AVA-attribute characterization as an unsupervised-learning problem, where AVA classes are learned directly from the data without any prior assumptions on physics and geological settings. The method is demonstrated on the Marmousi II elastic model, where a gas reservoir was successfully delineated from a background trend in a depth migrated image.},

	abstract = {We extend full-waveform inversion by Wavefield Reconstruction Inversion by including convex constraints on the model. Contrary to the conventional adjoint-state formulations, Wavefield Reconstruction Inversion has the advantage that the Gauss-Newton Hessian is well approximated by a diagonal scaling, which allows us to add convex constraints, such as the box- and the edge-preserving total-variation constraint, on the square slowness without incurring significant increases in computational costs. As the examples demonstrate, including these constraints yields far superior results in complex geological areas that contain high-velocity high-contrast bodies (e.g. salt or basalt). Without these convex constraints, adjoint-state and Wavefield Reconstruction Inversion get trapped in local minima for poor starting models.},

	abstract = {In this paper, we present an efficient way to compute extended images for all subsurface offsets without explicitly calculating the source and receiver wavefields for all the sources. Because the extended images contain all possible subsurface offsets, we compute the angle-domain image gathers by selecting the subsurface offset that is aligned with the local dip. We also propose a method to compute the local dip information directly from common-image-point gathers. To assess the quality of the angle-domain common-image-points gathers we compute the angle-dependent reflectivity coefficients and compare them with theoretical reflectivity coefficients yielded by the (linearized) Zoeppritz equations for a few synthetic models.},

	abstract = {To meet current-day challenges, exploration seismology increasingly relies on more and more sophisticated algorithms that require multiple paths through all data. This requirement leads to problems because the size of seismic data volumes is increasing exponentially, exposing bottlenecks in IO and computational capability. To overcome these bottlenecks, we follow recent trends in machine learning and compressive sensing by proposing a sparsity-promoting inversion technique that works on small randomized subsets of data only. We boost the performance of this algorithm significantly by modifying a state-of-the-art l1-norm solver to benefit from message passing, which breaks the build up of correlations between model iterates and the randomized linear forward model. We demonstrate the performance of this algorithm on a toy sparse-recovery problem and on a realistic reverse-time-migration example with random source encoding. The improvements in speed, memory use, and output quality are truly remarkable.},
