A Nonlinear Multigrid Method for the Parameter Identification Problem of Partial Differential Equations with Constraints

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the parameter identification problem of partial differential equations with constraints. A nonlinear multigrid method is introduced to the process of parameter inversion. By keeping the objective functions on coarse grids consistent with those on fine grids, the proposed method reduces the dimensions of objective functions enormously and mitigates the risk of trapping in local minima effectively. Furthermore, constraints significantly improve the convergence ability of the method. We performed the numerical simulation based on the porosity identification of elastic wave equations in the fluid-saturated porous media, which suggests that the nonlinear multigrid method with constraints decreases the computational expenditure, suppresses the noise, and improves the inversion results.

Predicted the Used Sailboat Price by Decision Tree and Multiple Regression Model

“…This paper uses the C5.0 decision tree algorithm [11][12][13][14][15][16][17] to establish the box office prediction model, the main reasons are: on the one hand, in the research process of box office prediction, the decision tree method is relatively advanced; on the other hand, the target of the C5.0 algorithm needs to be categorical variables, and the box office index in this paper just meets the requirements. C5.0 is a very classic decision tree model algorithm, which is an improvement on the basis of C4.5.…”

A hybrid algorithm of particle swarm optimization and genetic algorithm with application in automatic replenishment model

“…The optimization of real-world problems is characterized by large scale, many constraints and variables, which makes it difficult for traditional algorithms to find the solution in a short time. In order to improve the calculation accuracy and speed, intelligent optimization algorithms (such as simulated annealing algorithm [1,2] , neural network algorithm [3,4] , homotopy algorithm [5,6] , genetic algorithm [7,8] , ant colony algorithm [9,10] , multiscale algorithm [11][12][13] and particle swarm algorithm [14,15] , etc.) have been proposed and applied in various fields.…”

Based AHP Loss Function Model for Equilibrium Dam Water Use

“…Water resources determine the level of population, agricultural and industrial growth in these five regions. Many authors proposed advanced methods to solve the related problems [1][2][3][4][5][6]. In view of the above situation, it is very necessary and urgent to establish a reasonable water resource allocation plan.…”
