Optimization Methods for Inverse Problems

Understand

Optimization plays an important role in solving many inverse problems.

• Indeed, the task of inversion often either involves or is fully cast as a solution of an optimization problem.
• In this light, the mere non-linear, non-convex, and large-scale nature of many of these inversions gives rise to some very challenging optimization problems.
• The inverse problem community has long been developing various techniques for solving such optimization tasks.
