Abstract
A method may include obtaining seismic data regarding a geological region of interest. The method may further include obtaining a property model regarding the geological region of interest. The method may further include determining an adjoint migration operator based on the property model. The method may further include updating the property model using the seismic data and a conjugate gradient solver in a least-squares reverse time migration to produce a first updated property model. The conjugate gradient solver is based on the adjoint migration operator. The method may further include updating the first updated property model using a threshold shrinkage function to produce a second updated property model. The threshold shrinkage function comprises a sign function and a maximum function that are applied to the first updated property model. The method may further include generating a seismic image of the geological region of interest using the second updated property model.
