In seismic full-waveform inversion (FWI), subsurface parameters are estimated by iteratively
minimizing the difference between the modeled and the observed data. We have considered …

Attenuation exists in seismic wave propagation in subsurface layers, and relatively high
attenuation occurs in oil-bearing reservoirs. Inversion of frequency components of observed …

The problem of inverting for multiple physical parameters in the subsurface using seismic full-
