Abstract:Full waveform inversion (FWI) produces subsurface images by minimizing the misfit between observed data and calculated model using iterative local optimization algorithms like conjugate gradient method. This approach requires a starting model which should appear in the neighborhood of the global solution of the FWI problem to ensure that the modeled waveforms are less than half a period away from the recorded data. Usually, reflection traveltime tomography is used to create a long-wavelength background velocit… Show more
