A novel principle to localize the sensitivity of waveform tomography using wave interferences at the observation boundary

Abstract When using waveform tomography to perform high-resolution imaging of a medium, it is vital to calculate the sensitivity in order to describe how well a model fits a given set of data and how the sensitivity changes with the spatial distribution of the heterogeneities. The traditional princi...
