A penalty method for PDE-constrained optimization in inverse problems

A penalty method for PDE-constrained optimization in inverse problems

Many inverse and parameter estimation problems can be written as PDE-constrained optimization problems. The goal, then, is to infer the parameters, typically coefficients of the PDE, from partial measurements of the solutions of the PDE for several right-hand-sides. Such PDE-constrained problems can be solved by finding a stationary point of …
