The Modeling and Imaging Laboratory (MILAB)
is aiming to develop new theories, methods and algorithms for
modeling and imaging in 3D complex environments.
Our emphasis is on the fast one-way propagation and scattering methods
which bridge the gap between high-frequency asymptotic methods (ray theory)
and full-wave equation methods.
Other methods which can provide special solutions for some
difficult cases, are also under consideration.
Due to the success of the project, we have initiated a research consortium
``Wavelet Transform On Propagation and Imaging'' (WTOPI).
The newly developed fast wavelet transform (WT) is considered to be a
revolutionary breakthrough in signal analysis/processing.
In the same time frame, there has been significant progress in one-way wave
propagation theory and algorithms, including the recently developed
fast acoustic and elastic generalized screen propagators from our group
We will apply the wavelet transform to the generalized screen
or other one-way wave propagation methods to develop efficient
3D imaging and modeling methods.
The cross-breeding of these two new developments
has the potential of revolutionizing modeling
and imaging techniques for complex Earth media.
