Inverse Problems and Imaging

Abstract: Many applications in science and industry require identification of parameters, initial
states or other quantities that are not accessible to direct observations. The theoretical
analysis of such problems and the development of approaches for their solution during
the last decades has created the thriving field of inverse problems. Similarly, in recent
years the field of mathematical imaging has seen tremendous growth, not only due to
its intrinsic interest, e.g., in the context of medical imaging, but also by providing
considerable additional impetus to the inverse problems community, e.g., in the form
of regularization theory in Banach spaces together with tailored numerical algorithms
for the resulting nonsmooth problems. The aim of this minisymposium is therefore
to gather an active group of researchers interested in variational methods for solving
inverse and imaging problems, in order to foster increased interaction between these
fields.
