Abstract
We implement an inversion-based deblending method in the common midpoint gathers (CMP) as an alternative to the standard common receiver gather (CRG) domain methods. The primary advantage of deblending in the CMP domain is that reflections from dipping layers are centred around zero offsets. As a result, CMP gathers exhibit a simpler structure compared to common receiver gathers (CRGs), where these reflections are apex-shifted. Consequently, we can employ a zero-offset hyperbolic Radon operator to process CMP gathers. This operator is a computationally more efficient alternative to the apex-shifted hyperbolic Radon required for processing CRG gathers. Sparse transforms, such as the Radon transform, can stack reflections and produce sparse models capable of separating blended sources. We utilize the Radon operator to develop an inversion-based deblending framework that incorporates a sparse model constraint. The inclusion of a sparsity constraint in the inversion process enhances the focusing of the transform and improves data recovery. Inversion-based deblending enables us to account for all observed data by incorporating the blending operator into the cost function. Our synthetic and field data examples demonstrate that inversion-based deblending in the CMP domain can effectively separate blended sources.

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 it
