Recovery of blended data: a sparse coding approach for seismic acquisition

Deblending procedure for dense land/OBC/OBN acquisition based on sparsity promoted inverse problem. A general formulation for simulatneous source acquisitions is used to recover data from highly blended acqusition. This procedure uses cutting-edge mathematical tools from Compressed Sensing theory like l1-regularized inverse problem in the curvelet domain to acheive unprecedented deblending results.
