Wu, Juan (author), Bai, Min (author), Zhang, D. (author), Wang, Hang (author), Huang, Guangtan (author), Chen, Yangkang (author)Five-dimensional (5D) seismic data reconstruction becomes more appealing in recent years because it takes advantage of five physical dimensions of the seismic data and can reconstruct data with large gap. The low-rank approximation approach is one of the most effective methods for reconstructing 5D dataset. However, the main disadvantage of...journal article 2020
