Edge-preserving smoothing for simultaneous-source full-waveform inversion model updates in high-contrast velocity models
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Full-waveform inversion (FWI) can provide accurate estimates of subsurface model parameters. In spite of its success, the application of FWI in areas with high-velocity contrast remains a challenging problem. Quadratic regularization methods are often adopted to stabilize inverse problems. Unfortunately, edges and sharp discontinuities are not adequately preserved by quadratic regularization techniques. Throughout the iterative FWI method, an edge-preserving filter, however, can gently incorporate sharpness into velocity models. For every point in the velocity model, edge-preserving smoothing assigns the average value of the most uniform window neighboring the point. Edge-preserving smoothing generates piecewise-homogeneous images with enhanced contrast at boundaries. We adopt a simultaneous-source frequency-domain FWI, based on quasi-Newton optimization, in conjunction with an edge-preserving smoothing filter to retrieve high-contrast velocity models. The edge-preserving smoothing filter gradually removes the artifacts created by simultaneous-source encoding. We also have developed a simple model update to prevent disrupting the convergence of the optimization algorithm. Finally, we perform tests to examine our algorithm.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
