We investigate the inverse problem in the heat equation involving the recovery of the initial temperature from measurements of the final temperature. This problem is extremely ill-posed and it is believed that only information in the first few modes can be recovered by classical methods. We will consider this problem with a regularizing parameter which approximates and regularizes the heat conduction model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
