27 Regularized least-squares FGFT interpolation The FGFT interpolation can be achieved by minimizing the following cost function [Tikhonov and Goncharsky, 1987] d: Observed data in t-x domain g: FGFT coefficients T: Sampling function G: FGFT operator W: Weight function µ: Trade-off parameter J = d T G H Wg µ 2 g 2 2. The weight function W needs to be properly identified from the data for optimal recovery of missing samples.

28 Derivation of weight function W Irregularly missing samples For irregularly missing samples a weight function which renders a sparse representation of FGFT coefficients is desired [Naghizadeh and Innanen, 2011] Initialization W 0 = I For k = 1, 2, 3... ĝ k = argmin{ d obs T G T W k 1 g µ2 g 2 2 } g W k = diag(abs(ĝ k )) End Regularly missing samples For regularly missing samples a priori information is needed to preserve specific FGFT coefficients. In the case of seismic data this can be extracted from low frequencies. [Spitz, 1991]

49 Conclusions Fast Generalized Fourier Transform (FGFT) is a fast and efficient way for analyzing nonstationry signals. FGFT does not increase the size of data (non-redundant) and is very simple to apply. The fast and non-redundant properties of FGFT comes with trade-off on precision which might make it unsuitable for some applications. FGFT can be used to interpolate: Irregular sampling: Combination of a nonstationry signal and irregular sampling is hard to be reconstructed. FGFT shows somehow stable recovery in this situation. Regular sampling: Regular sampling creates high amplitude artifact in Fourier domain. In FGFT, these artifact are only present at high frequencies. For a successful FGFT interpolation a priori mask function is required.

50 Conclusions (Cont.) For regularly sampled aliased nonstationary seismic data one can make a mask function from half frequencies in the f-x domain of original data. The mask function can be used to guide FGFT interpolation. The extension of FGFT to the multidimensional case is straightforward.
