title = "Structural similarity regularization scheme for multiparameter seismic full waveform inversion",
abstract = "We introduce a new regularization scheme for multiparameter seismic full-waveform inversion (FWI). Using this scheme, we can constrain spatial variations of parameters which are having a weak sensitivity with the one that having a good sensitivity to the measurement, assuming that these parameters have similarities in their structures. In seismic FWI, we apply this scheme when inverting the P-wave velocity and mass density simultaneously. Results from numerical tests show that this scheme may significantly improve the reconstruction of the mass density. Since we obtain an improved mass-density distribution, the inverted P-wave velocity is also enhanced. Hence, we also obtain a better data fit. As numerical examples we show inversions of both vertical seismic profiling (VSP) and surface seismic measurements.",
