Abel inversion using total-variation regularization
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract In the case of radiography of a cylindrically symmetric object, the Abel transform is useful for describing the tomographic measurement operator. The inverse of this operator is unbounded, so regularization is required for the computation of satisfactory inversions. We introduce the use of the total variation seminorm for this purpose, and prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the corresponding variational problem. We illustrate the effectiveness of the total-variation regularization with an example and comparison with the unregularized inverse and the H 1 regularized inverse.

Stability and Error Estimates of BV Solutions to the Abel Inverse Problem
Reconstructing images from ill-posed inverse problems often utilizes total variation regularization in order to recover discontinuities in the data while also removing noise and other artifacts. Total variation regularization has been successful in recovering images for (noisy) Abel transformed data, where object boundaries and data support will lead to sharp edges in the reconstructed image. I...
متن کاملFull Waveform Inversion with Total Variation Regularization
Waveform inverse problems are mathematically ill-posed and, therefore, regularization methods are required to obtain stable and unique solutions. The Total Variation (TV) regularization method is used to resolve sharp interfaces obtaining solutions where edges and discontinuities are preserved. TV regularization accomplishes these goals by imposing sparsity on the gradient of the model paramete...

In this paper a fast method for large-scale sparse inversion of magnetic data is considered. The L1-norm stabilizer is used to generate models with sharp and distinct interfaces. To deal with the non-linearity introduced by the L1-norm, a model-space iteratively reweighted least squares algorithm is used. The original model matrix is factorized using the Golub-Kahan bidiagonalization that proje...

We propose a formulation of full-wavefield inversion (FWI) as a constrained optimization problem, and describe a computationally efficient technique for solving constrained full-wavefield inversion (CFWI). The technique is based on using a total-variation regularization method, with the regularization weighted in favor of constraining deeper subsurface model sections. The method helps to promot...
متن کاملAutomatic estimation of regularization parameter by active constraint balancing method for 3D inversion of gravity data
Gravity data inversion is one of the important steps in the interpretation of practical gravity data. The inversion result can be obtained by minimization of the Tikhonov objective function. The determination of an optimal regularization parameter is highly important in the gravity data inversion. In this work, an attempt was made to use the active constrain balancing (ACB) method to select the...
