A Level-set Approach for Inverse Problems Involving Obstacles
نویسنده
چکیده
An approach for solving inverse problems involving obstacles is proposed. The approach uses a level-set method which has been shown to be eeective in treating problems of moving boundaries, particularly those that involve topological changes in the geometry. We develop two computational methods based on this idea. One method results in a nonlinear time-dependent partial diierential equation for the level-set function whose evolution minimizes the residual in the data t. The second method is an optimization that generates a sequence of level-set functions that reduces the residual. The methods are illustrated in two applications: a deconvolution problem and a diiraction screen reconstruction problem.

متن کاملParametric Level Set Methods for Inverse Problems
In this paper, a parametric level set method for reconstruction of obstacles in general inverse problems is considered. General evolution equations for the reconstruction of unknown obstacles are derived in terms of the underlying level set parameters. We show that using the appropriate form of parameterizing the level set function results a significantly lower dimensional problem, which bypass...
متن کاملInverse spectral problems for Sturm-Liouville operators with transmission conditions
Abstract: This paper deals with the boundary value problem involving the differential equation -y''+q(x)y=lambda y subject to the standard boundary conditions along with the following discontinuity conditions at a point y(a+0)=a1y(a-0), y'(a+0)=a2y'(a-0)+a3y(a-0). We develop the Hochestadt-Lieberman’s result for Sturm-Lio...
متن کاملA Bayesian level set method for geometric inverse problems
We introduce a level set based approach to Bayesian geometric inverse problems. In these problems the interface between different domains is the key unknown, and is realized as the level set of a function. This function itself becomes the object of the inference. Whilst the level set methodology has been widely used for the solution of geometric inverse problems, the Bayesian formulation that w...
متن کاملA Survey on Level Set Methods for Inverse Problems and Optimal Design
The aim of this paper is to provide a survey on the recent development in level set methods in inverse problems and optimal design. We give introductions on the general features of such problems involving geometries and on the general framework of the level set method. In subsequent parts we discuss shape sensitivity analysis and its relation to level set methods, various approaches on construc...
