dc.description.abstract	We present a non-linear method for solving linear inverse problems by thresholding coefficients in the wavelet domain1. Our method is based on the wavelet-vaguelette decomposition of Donoho (1992). Numerical results for a synthetic travel-time inversion problem show that the wavelet based method outperforms traditional least-squares methods of solution.	en_US
