Direct Waveform Inversion Using Explicit Time-Space Causality Principle
… in the DWI is the explicit use of the wavefield time-space causality property in the inversion, which allows us to convert the global non-linear optimization problem in the FWI, without losing information, into local linear inversions that can be readily solved. The DWI is a recursive scheme …
