1. A method for deblending of simultaneous source monitoring of seismic data in a time lapse seismic application, comprising:
acquiring unblended baseline seismic data;
generating blended baseline seismic data by numerically blending the unblended baseline seismic data according to a simultaneous shooting schedule scheme;
generating pseudo-deblended baseline seismic data by applying a pseudo-deblending procedure to the blended baseline seismic data;
generating labels for machine learning from common gathers of the pseudo-deblended baseline seismic data and common gathers of the acquired unblended baseline seismic data;
training a neural network using the labels, the common gathers of the pseudo-deblended baseline seismic data, and the common gathers of the acquired unblended baseline seismic data, the neural network being trained to produce common gathers of deblended seismic data from the common gathers of the pseudo-deblended baseline seismic data; and
performing a drilling operation in accordance with the common gathers of the deblended seismic data produced by the trained neural network,
wherein the simultaneous shooting schedule scheme comprises firing a plurality of shots such that subsequent shots are fired before effects of a previous shot fade.
