EMPLOYMENT

Senior Researcher, University of Bergen, Norway: Since 1993

Senior research scientist, Institute of Physics, SPbU, Russia: Prior to 1993

ALGORITHM CREATION skills, e.g.
Author of a new global optimization algorithm (RGA-algorithm),
which has been successfully applied for 3D nonlinear inversion:
3D nonlinear inversion by entropy of image contrast optimization,
1995, Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, v.2, n.3/4, pp. 228-240
                            and for real data processing:
A new approach to coherency inversion by global optimization, 1995:
65th SEG Meeting, 1995, Expanded Abstracts, p.1081-1083.
Author of a few novel algorithms for 3D inversion/migration, e.g.
