Source separation via SVD-free rank-minimization in the hierarchical semi-separable representation

During this talk, we will show a source separation algorithm for blended marine acquisition, where two sources are deployed at different depths (over/under acquisition). The separation method incorporates the Hierarchical Semi-Separable (HSS) structure inside rank-regularized least-squares formulations. We also compare this deblending scheme with the sparsity-promoting one-norm minimization scheme.
