Abstract We consider an inverse scattering problem of recovering the unknown coefficients of a quasi-linearly perturbed biharmonic operator in the three-dimensional case. These unknown complex-valued coefficients are assumed to satisfy some regularity conditions on their nonlinearity, but they can be discontinuous or singular in their space variable. We prove Saito’s formula and uniqueness theorem of recovering some essential information about the unknown coefficients from the knowledge of the high frequency scattering amplitude.

Abstract In this paper, we propose a variational regularization method for denoising and inpainting of diffusion tensor magnetic resonance images. We consider these images as manifold-valued Sobolev functions, i.e. in an infinite dimensional setting, which are defined appropriately. The regularization functionals are defined as double integrals, which are equivalent to Sobolev semi-norms in the Euclidean setting. We extend the analysis of [14] concerning stability and convergence of the variational regularization methods by a uniqueness result, apply them to diffusion tensor processing, and validate our model in numerical examples with synthetic and real data.

Abstract The means to obtain the adsorption isotherms is a fundamental open problem in competitive chromatography. A modern technique of estimating adsorption isotherms is to solve a nonlinear inverse problem in a partial differential equation so that the simulated batch separation coincides with actual experimental results. However, this identification process is usually ill-posed in the sense that the uniqueness of adsorption isotherms cannot be guaranteed, and moreover, the small noise in the measured response can lead to a large fluctuation in the traditional estimation of adsorption isotherms. The conventional mathematical method of solving this problem is the variational regularization, which is formulated as a non-convex minimization problem with a regularized objective functional. However, in this method, the choice of regularization parameter and the design of a convergent solution algorithm are quite difficult in practice. Moreover, due to the restricted number of injection profiles in experiments, the types of measured data are extremely limited, which may lead to a biased estimation. In order to overcome these difficulties, in this paper, we develop a new inversion method – the virtual injection promoting double feed-forward neural network (VIP-DFNN). In this approach, the training data contain various types of artificial injections and synthetic noisy measurement at outlet, generated by a conventional physics model – a time-dependent convection-diffusion system. Numerical experiments with both artificial and real data from laboratory experiments show that the proposed VIP-DFNN is an efficient and robust algorithm.

Abstract In this paper, we study secant-type iteration for nonlinear ill-posed equations involving 𝑚-accretive mappings in Banach spaces. We prove that the proposed iterative scheme has a convergence order at least 2.20557 using assumptions only on the first Fréchet derivative of the operator. Further, using a general Hölder-type source condition, we obtain an optimal error estimate. We also use the adaptive parameter choice strategy proposed by Pereverzev and Schock (2005) for choosing the regularization parameter.

Abstract This paper concerns the weak unique continuation property of solutions of a general system of differential equation/inequality with a second order strongly elliptic system as its leading part. We put not only some natural assumptions which we call basic assumptions, but also some technical assumptions which we call further assumptions. It is shown as usual by first applying the Holmgren transform to this equation/inequality and then establishing a Carleman estimate for the leading part of the transformed inequality. The Carleman estimate is given via a partition of unity and the Carleman estimate for the operator with constant coefficients obtained by freezing the coefficients of the transformed leading part at a point. A little more details about this are as follows. Factorize this operator with constant coefficients into two first order differential operators. Conjugate each factor by a Carleman weight, and derive an estimate which is uniform with respect to the point at which we froze the coefficients for each conjugated factor by constructing a parametrix for its adjoint operator.

Abstract In this paper, we study the backward problem for the stochastic parabolic heat equation driven by a Wiener process. We show that the problem is ill-posed by violating the continuous dependence on the input data. In order to restore stability, we apply a filter regularization method which is completely new in the stochastic setting. Convergence rates are established under different a priori assumptions on the sought solution.

Abstract Transient electromagnetic method (TEM), as one of the essential time-domain electromagnetic prospecting approaches, has the advantage of expedition, efficiency and convenience. In this paper, we study the transient electromagnetic inversion problem of different geological anomalies. First, Maxwell’s differential equations are discretized by the staggered finite-difference (FD) method; then we propose to solve the TEM inversion problem by minimizing the Wasserstein metric, which is related to the optimal transport (OT). Experimental tests based on the layered model and a 3D model are performed to demonstrate the feasibility of our proposed method.
