Asymptotic and Factorization Analysis for Inverse Shape Problems in Tomography and Scattering TheoryGovanni Granados (18283216) 01 April 2024 (has links)
<p dir="ltr">Developing non-invasive and non-destructive testing in complex media continues to be a rich field of study (see e.g.[22, 28, 36, 76, 89] ). These types of tests have applications in medical imaging, geophysical exploration, and engineering where one would like to detect an interior region or estimate a model parameter. With the current rapid development of this enabling technology, there is a growing demand for new mathematical theory and computational algorithms for inverse problems in partial differential equations. Here the physical models are given by a boundary value problem stemming from Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT), Diffuse Optical Tomography (DOT), as well as acoustic scattering problems. Important mathematical questions arise regarding existence, uniqueness, and continuity with respect to measured surface data. Rather than determining the solution of a given boundary value problem, we are concerned with using surface data in order to develop and implement numerical algorithms to recover unknown subregions within a known domain. A unifying theme of this thesis is to develop Qualitative Methods to solve inverse shape problems using measured surface data. These methods require very few a priori assumptions on the regions of interest, boundary conditions, and model parameter estimation. The counterpart to qualitative methods, iterative methods, typically require a priori information that may not be readily available and can be more computationally expensive. Qualitative Methods usually require more data.</p><p dir="ltr">This thesis expands the library of Qualitative Methods for elliptic problems coming from tomography and scattering theory. We consider inverse shape problems where our goal is to recover extended and small volume regions. For extended regions, we consider applying a modified version of the well-known Factorization Method [73]. Whereas for the small volume regions, we develop a Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC)-type algorithm (see for e.g. [3, 5]). In all of our problems, we derive an imaging functional that will effectively recover the region of interest. The results of this thesis form part of the theoretical forefront of physical applications. Furthermore, it extends the mathematical theory at the intersection of mathematics, physics and engineering. Lastly, it also advances knowledge and understanding of imaging techniques for non-invasive and non-destructive testing.</p>

Direct sampling method in inverse electromagnetic scattering problem / Imagerie non itérative en problème inverse de diffraction des ondes : méthode DSMKang, Sangwoo 14 November 2019 (has links)
Le problème de l'imagerie non itérative dans le cadre de la diffraction électromagnétique inverse utilisant la méthode d'échantillonnage direct (DSM) est considéré. Grâce à une combinaison de l'expression asymptotique du champ proche ou du champ lointain diffracté et de l'hypothèse de petits obstacles, les expressions analytiques de la fonction d'indicateur DSM sont présentées dans diverses configurations telles que des configurations 2D/3D, mono-/multi-configurations statiques, à vue limitée/complète et fréquence unique/ diversité en fréquence. Une fois l'expression analytique obtenue, sa structure est analysée et des améliorations proposées. Notre approche est validée à l’aide de données de simulation, et d’expériences le cas échéant. Premièrement, la structure mathématique du DSM à fréquence fixe en 2D dans divers problèmes de diffusion est établie, permettant une analyse théorique de son efficacité et de ses limites. Pour surmonter les limitations connues, une méthode alternative d'échantillonnage direct (DSMA) est proposée. Puis le cas multi-fréquence est investigué en introduisant et en analysant le DSM multi-fréquence (MDSM) et le DSMA multi-fréquence (MDSMA). Enfin, notre approche est étendue aux problèmes de diffraction électromagnétique inverse 3D pour lesquels le choix de la polarisation du dipôle de test est un paramètre clé. De par notre approche analytique, ce choix peut être effectué sur la base de la polarisation du champ incident. / The non-iterative imaging problem within the inverse electromagnetic scattering framework using the direct sampling method (DSM) is considered. Thanks to the combination of the asymptotic expression of the scattered near-field or far-field and of the small obstacle hypothesis the analytical expressions of the DSM indicator function are presented in various configurations such as 2D/3D configurations and/or mono-/multi-static configurations and/or limited-/full-view case and/or mono-/multi-frequency case. Once the analytical expression obtained, its structure is analyzed and improvements proposed. Our approach is validated using synthetic data and experimental ones when available. First, the mathematical structure of DSM at a fixed frequency in 2D various scattering problems is established allowing a theoretical analysis of its efficiency and limitations. To overcome the known limitations an alternative direct sampling method (DSMA) is proposed. Next, the multi-frequency case is investigated by introducing and analyzing the multi-frequency DSM (MDSM) and the multi-frequency DSMA (MDSMA).Finally, our approach is extended to 3D inverse electromagnetic scattering problems for which the choice of the polarization of the test dipole is a key parameter. Thanks to our analytical analysis it can be made based on the polarization of the incident field.

Analysis and Computation for the Inverse Scattering Problem with Conductive Boundary ConditionsRafael Ceja Ayala (18340938) 11 April 2024 (has links)
<p dir="ltr">In this thesis, we consider the inverse problem of reconstructing the shape, position, and size of an unknown scattering object. We will talk about different methods used for nondestructive testing in scattering theory. We will consider qualitative reconstruction methods to understand and determine important information about the support of unknown scattering objects. We will also discuss the material properties of the system and connect them to certain crucial aspects of the region of interest, as well as develop useful techniques to determine physical information using inverse scattering theory. </p><p><br></p><p dir="ltr">In the first part of the analysis, we consider the transmission eigenvalue (TE) problem associated with the scattering of a plane wave for an isotropic scatterer. In particular, we examine the transmission eigenvalue problem with two conductivity boundary parameters. In previous studies, this eigenvalue problem was analyzed with one conductive boundary parameter, whereas we will consider the case of two parameters. We will prove the existence and discreteness of the transmission eigenvalues. In addition, we will study the dependence of the TE's on the physical parameters and connect the first transmission eigenvalue to the physical parameters of the problem by a monotone-type argument. Lastly, we will consider the limiting procedure as the second boundary parameter vanishes at the boundary of the scattering region and provide numerical examples to validate the theory presented in Chapter 2. </p><p><br></p><p dir="ltr">The connection between transmission eigenvalues and the system's physical parameters provides a way to do testing in a nondestructive way. However, to understand the region of interest in terms of its shape, size, and position, one needs to use different techniques. As a result, we consider reconstructing extended scatterers using an analogous method to the Direct Sampling Method (DSM), a new sampling method based on the Landweber iteration. We will need a factorization of the far-field operator to analyze the corresponding imaging function for the new Landweber direct sampling method. Then, we use the factorization and the Funk--Hecke integral identity to prove that the new imaging function will accurately recover the scatterer. The method studied here falls under the category of qualitative reconstruction methods, where an imaging function is used to retrieve the scatterer. We prove the stability of our new imaging function as well as derive a discrepancy principle for recovering the regularization parameter. The theoretical results are verified with numerical examples to show how the reconstruction performs by the new Landweber direct sampling method.</p><p><br></p><p dir="ltr">Motivated by the work done with the transmission eigenvalue problem with two conductivity parameters, we also study the direct and inverse problem for isotropic scatterers with two conductive boundary conditions. In such a problem, one analyzes the behavior of the scattered field as one of the conductivity parameters vanishes at the boundary. Consequently, we prove the convergence of the scattered field dealing with two conductivity parameters to the scattered field dealing with only one conductivity parameter. We consider the uniqueness of recovering the coefficients from the known far-field data at a fixed incident direction for multiple frequencies. Then, we consider the inverse shape problem for recovering the scatterer for the measured far-field data at a fixed frequency. To this end, we study the direct sampling method for recovering the scatterer by studying the factorization for the far-field operator. The direct sampling method is stable concerning noisy data and valid in two dimensions for partial aperture data. The theoretical results are verified with numerical examples to analyze the performance using the direct sampling method. </p>
