Abstract:Full Waveform Inversion (FWI) is now used regularly by the industry to update velocity models. These algorithms often take into account anisotropy but do not update it. We introduce a set of parameters, new in the scope of FWI, which have better orthogonal properties in comparison to other equivalent sets. This was done in an attempt to mitigate the existing ambiguity when jointly estimating anisotropy and velocity from FWI. After demonstrating the properties of this new parameter set, a practical application … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
