Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years, which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

You will learn to identify an ill-posed inverse problem and to understand the restrictions its nature imposes on the solution process. You will familiarize yourself with several classical regularization methods for finding approximate solutions to linear ill-posed problems. You will learn to formulate an inverse problem as a Bayesian problem of statistical inference and to interpret the information contained in the resulting posterior probability distribution. You will learn to numerically implement the introduced solution techniques.
