Regularizing tomography with non-stationary filters
نویسنده
چکیده
The ideal regularizer is the inverse of the model covariance matrix. Often the model covariance matrix has a complicated structure that is difficult to characterize. Non-stationary prediction error filters (PEF) have the ability to describe complicated model behavior. Non-stationary filters are effective regularizers for missing data and tomography problems.

Non-stationary autoregressive filters for prediction of subsurface geological structure
Accurate decision-making in the petroleum industry is highly contingent on building a reliable model of the subsurface geological structure. Building a model of the subsurface typically involves solving an inverse problem with acquired data for various model parameters of interest like P-wave velocity, rock porosity etc. However, issues of poor data quality necessitate regularizing the inverse ...
متن کاملRegularizing time tomography with steering filters
Standard depth tomography methods often do not converge, converge slowly, or converge to a model that is geologically unrealistic. By using dip based steering filters rather than standard isotropic regularization operators, convergence speed and final model quality are improved. By formulating the tomography operator in two-way vertical traveltime (τ ,ξ) rather than in depth (z,x) coordinates, ...

متن کاملOn non-stationary convolution and inverse convolution
Recursive inverse filtering with non-stationary filters is becoming a useful tool in a range of applications, from multi-dimensional inverse problems to wave extrapolation. I formulate causal non-stationary convolution and combination and their adjoints in such a way that it is apparent that the corresponding non-stationary recursive filters are true inverse processes. Stationary recursive inve...
