Curvelet-based seismic data processing: a multiscale and nonlinear approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this letter, the solutions to three seismic processing problems are presented that exploit the multiscale and multi-angular properties of the curvelet transform. Data regularization, multiple removal, and restoration of migration amplitudes are all formulated in terms of a sparsity promoting program that employs the high degree of sparsity attained by curvelets on seismic data and images. For each problem the same nonlinear program is solved, simultaneously minimizing the data misfit and the one norm (`1) on the desired curveletdomain solution. Parsimony of curvelets on seismic wavefields and images of the sedimentary crust with wavefront-like features underlies the successful solution of these problems and is a clear indication of the broad applicability of this transform in exploration seismology. ∗Seismic Laboratory for Imaging and Modeling, Department of Earth and Ocean Sciences, University of British Columbia, 6339 Stores Road, Vancouver, V6T 1Z4, BC, Canada †Jilin University, 2699 Qianjin street, Changchun, 130012, China.

متن کاملSparsity- and continuity-promoting seismic image recovery with curvelet frames
A nonlinear singularity-preserving solution to seismic image recovery with sparseness and continuity constraints is proposed. We observe that curvelets, as a directional frame expansion, lead to sparsity of seismic images and exhibit invariance under the normal operator of the linearized imaging problem. Based on this observation we derive a method for stable recovery of the migration amplitude...
متن کاملA Review of Curvelets and Recent Applications
Multiresolution methods are deeply related to image processing, biological and computer vision, scientific computing, etc. The curvelet transform is a multiscale directional transform which allows an almost optimal nonadaptive sparse representation of objects with edges. It has generated increasing interest in the community of applied mathematics and signal processing over the past years. In th...
