We present a contrast source inversion (CSI) algorithm using a finite-difference (FD) approach as its backbone for reconstructing the unknown material properties of inhomogeneous objects embedded in a known inhomogeneous background medium. Unlike the CSI method using the integral equation (IE) approach, the FD-CSI method can readily employ an arbitrary inhomogeneous medium as its background. Th...

Many problems in physics like reconstruction of the radially distributed emissivity from the line-of-sight projected intensity, the 3-D image reconstruction from cone beam projections in computerized tomography, etc. lead naturally, in the case of radial symmetry, to the study of Abel’s type integral equation. Obtaining the physically relevant quantity from the measured one requires, therefore ...

Program inversion has been successfully applied to several areas such as optimistic parallel discrete event simulation (OPDES) and reverse debugging. This paper introduces a new program inversion algorithm for imperative languages, and focuses on handling arbitrary control flows and basic operations. By building a value search graph that represents recoverability relationships between variable ...

In this paper, we generalize a recently introduced expectation maximization (EM) method for graphs and apply it to content-based networks. The EM method provides a classification of the nodes of a graph, and allows one to infer relations between the different classes. Content-based networks are ideal models for graphs displaying any kind of community and/or multipartite structure. We show both ...

Despite the significant advances made over the last few years in mapping inversions with the advent of paired-end sequencing approaches, our understanding of the prevalence and spectrum of inversions in the human genome has lagged behind other types of structural variants, mainly due to the lack of a cost-efficient method applicable to large-scale samples. We propose a novel method based on pri...

There is growing interest in developing a three-dimensional (3-D) inversion and imaging technique from a single borehole. This problem can be solved by using tensor (multi-component) induction welllogging – TIWL. This method was originally introduced to resolve formation anisotropy. However, it was demonstrated in several publications that the TIWL instrument has sensitivity to 3-D conductivity...

in this research we have studied tabriz temperature inversion using radio-sound information, during the 2004-2008 periods in daily, monthly and seasonally scales. produced data associated with temperature inversion daily of the surface (2 meters) to 700 h.pa. several different measures are used, including the height of the base and the height of the top of the inversion, the temperature at the ...

A novel numerical method for solving inverse scattering problem with fixed-energy data is proposed. The method contains a new important concept: the stability index of the inversion problem. This is a number, computed from the data, which shows how stable the inversion is. If this index is small, then the inversion provides a set of potentials which differ so little, that practically one can re...
