MATCHING PURSUIT-BASED APPARATUS AND TECHNIQUE TO CONSTRUCT A SEISMIC SIGNAL USING A PREDICTED ENERGY DISTRIBUTION

摘要

A technique includes processing seismic data indicative of samples of at least one measured seismic signal in a processor-based machine to, in an iterative process, determine basis functions, which represent a constructed seismic signal. The technique includes in each iteration of the iterative process, selecting another basis function of the plurality of basis functions. The selecting includes based at least in part on the samples and a current version of the constructed seismic signal, determining a cost function; and interpreting the cost function based at least in part on a predicted energy distribution of the constructed seismic signal to select the basis function.
