Generalized Qualification and Qualification Levels for Spectral Regularization Methods
The concept of qualification for spectral regularization methods for inverse
ill-posed problems is strongly associated to the optimal order of convergence
of the regularization error. In this article, the definition of qualification
is extended and three different levels are introduced: weak, strong and
optimal. It is shown that the weak qualification extends the definition
introduced by Mathe and Pereverzev in 2003, mainly in the sense that the
functions associated to orders of convergence and source sets need not be the
same. It is shown that certain methods possessing infinite classical
qualification, e.g. truncated singular value decomposition (TSVD), Landweber's
method and Showalter's method, also have generalized qualification leading to
an optimal order of convergence of the regularization error. Sufficient
conditions for a SRM to have weak qualification are provided and necessary and
sufficient conditions for a given order of convergence to be strong or optimal
qualification are found. Examples of all three qualification levels are
provided and the relationships between them as well as with the classical
concept of qualification and the qualification introduced by Mathe and
Perevezev are shown. In particular, spectral regularization methods having
extended qualification in each one of the three levels and having zero or
infinite classical qualification are presented. Finally several implications of
this theory in the context of orders of convergence, converse results and
maximal source sets for inverse ill-posed problems, are shown.Comment: 20 pages, 1 figur
ABOUT REGULARIZATION OF SEVERELY ILL-POSED PROBLEMS BY STANDARD TIKHONOV'S METHOD WITH THE BALANCING PRINCIPLE
In the present paper for a stable solution of severely ill-posed problems with perturbed input data, the standard Tikhonov method is applied, and the regularization parameter is chosen according to balancing principle. We establish that the approach provides the order of accuracy on the class of problems under consideration
A mathematical approach in the design of arterial bypass using unsteady Stokes equations
In this paper we present an approach for the study of Aorto-Coronaric bypass anastomoses configurations using unsteady Stokes equations. The theory of optimal control based on adjoint formulation is applied in order to optimize the shape of the zone of the incoming branch of the bypass (the toe) into the coronary according to several optimality criteria. \ua9 2006 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc
