Convexification for a 1D Hyperbolic Coefficient Inverse Problem with Single Measurement Data (2002.01074v2)
Published 4 Feb 2020 in math.NA and cs.NA
Abstract: A version of the convexification numerical method for a Coefficient Inverse Problem for a 1D hyperbolic PDE is presented. The data for this problem are generated by a single measurement event. This method converges globally. The most important element of the construction is the presence of the Carleman Weight Function in a weighted Tikhonov-like functional. This functional is strictly convex on a certain bounded set in a Hilbert space, and the diameter of this set is an arbitrary positive number. The global convergence of the gradient projection method is established. Computational results demonstrate a good performance of the numerical method for noisy data.
