Claerbout,Black - Basic earth imaging (Version2 4) (2001)(en)(GPp) - I just liked their approach. If you are going to develop something from scratch.
RESINVM3D: A 3D resistivity inversion package
- I think you need to consider using several imaging modalities together to solve this problem of subsurface imaging. It is cheaper to buy sensors and exploration technologies, than to pay for a dry hole. The more money on the plate, the more will be spent up front for exploration. I saw this at Phillips, and elsewhere. The paper I mentioned, they were talking $2 billion to develop deep ocean prospects. That means $200 million for exploration and design. Resistivity inversion is being used in biomedical areas more. There are very good reasons for connecting it to other imaging methods. I know of places where five or six imaging techniques are applied at once. The correlations between them complement each other to fill in weaknesses of each method. Use one method to image the missing data from another. Conductivity is a basic one.MIT - Gilbert Strang, Computational Science and Engineering - Matlab codes - Here is another person who might make a good partner. He has some good examples.
2006 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium - medical imaging has used beam forming techniques to make significant progress. If you can control the illumination or characterize a natural source of illumination, you will be 1000 times better off.
Rice - Peng Shen - This person has excellent background. You might want to meet him. Easier to hire someone or work with them, than to learn it yourself. Plus he has connections and resources you do not.
Recursive Kirchoff Wavefield Extrapolation - I like their approach.

FEAP - A Finite Element Analysis Program - Just one example of an outside code that can be used with MatLab. You do not need to do all your code in MatLab, since you can call routines in any language. There is a lot of old fortan code that can be bolted onto Matlab.
NYU - Matlab Codes, Matlab interface to FEAP - a cookbook for bolting FEAP onto matlab.
What is the status of open source finite element code? - I liked the discussion. If you are going to use finite element techniques, might as well use open source that has a large community. Why develop something from scratch. Would you write your own Matlab?
Wikipedia - Matlab, Limitations - good discussion of the limitations of matlab as a programming environment. I think you could do the same with fortran or ten other languages.
Matlab Central - FEM, Seismic, - Matlab itself has many examples from users. Interesting.
