Title:

Model reduction approaches for  geophysical oil exploration


Topics to be discussed:

1) Classical model reduction for forward and inverse problems of
geophysical electromagnetic exploration. This topic includes optimal
choice of interpolation frequencies and multi-parametric model
reduction

2) Finite-difference Gaussian quadrature rules (a.k.a. spectrally
matched or optimal grids), that is a new model reduction approach for
PDE discretization.
