Full waveform inversion using simultaneous encoded sources based on first- and second-order optimization methods
DownloadFall 2014
Full waveform inversion (FWI) is an emerging seismic technology engine for estimating subsurface model parameters such as velocity, density and attenuation through local minimization of an objective function. The minimization problem is often performed iteratively via gradient-based method that...
