Abstract
A method, an apparatus and a computer readable medium for generating an image of a subsurface based on seismic data corresponding to at least two different times, for a same surveyed area are provided. A cost function, which is a sum over the seismic data vintages of a norm of differences between data and model predicted multiples, is minimized subject to minimizing residual multiples that are differences of corresponding multiples belonging to different vintages among the seismic data vintages.
