We use exponentially weighted recursive least squares to estimate adaptive prediction filters for frequency-space seismic interpolation. Adaptive prediction filters can model signals where the dominant wavenumbers vary in space. This concept leads to an interpolation method that does not require windowing strategies for optimal results. In other words, adaptive prediction filters can be used to interpolate waveforms that have spatially variant dips. The interpolation method's performance depends on two parameters: filter length and forgetting factor. We pay particular attention to selection of the forgetting factor because it controls the algorithm's adaptability to changes in local dip. Finally, we use synthetic- and real-data examples to illustrate the performance of the proposed adaptive interpolation method.
