Super resolution of time-lapse seismic images

摘要

We present results of an on-going project to assess the applicability in reflection seismology of emerging super resolution techniques pioneered in digital photography. Our approach involves: (1) construction of a forward model connecting low resolution seismic images to high resolution ones, and (2) solution of a Tikhonov-regularized ill conditioned optimization problem to construct a high resolution image from several lower resolution counterparts; the high and low resolution images derived, respectively, from dense and sparse seismic surveys.
