A Survey of Recent Progress on Inverse Problems.

Abstract

Over the past few years, the authors have been engaged in a coordinated research program on inverse problems. By this time, the results have been spread over a number of different papers. This review provides an opportunity to collect those results, to filter some of the work that has proven to be of less interest and to incorporate into the presentation new insights that have been developed during this research project. This report describes the three main segments in the research program: physical optics farfield inverse scattering (denoted by the alliteration POFFIS); seismic or subsurface profiling in media with small variations in propagation speed; analysis of the inverse source problem.
