Product Review
"a very useful textbook at undergraduate and graduate-level courses teaching the numerical techniques used in parameter estimation."
-Wojciech Debski, Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences
"a 'one-shop-stop' for solving inverse problems; it contains many different methods for solving your particular problems and, in general, all of the background mathematics to help you understand the method itself."
-John Brittan, in THE LEADING EDGE, SEPT 2005
"The writing is uniformly clear.An exceptionally well written introductory text whichis reasonably priced, placing it at least within reach of a college student."
-Sven Treitel, Leading Edge, March 2006
Well designedwith a very clean approach [and] a fine introductionThe writing is conversationalthat allows the ideas to come across clearly."
-Paul Phillips, University of Dallas for MAA, February 2006
"A well recommended addition to the technical library of anybody who has to deal with inverse problems."
--from John Brittan, Walton-on-Thames, UK for "The Leading Edge", September 2005
Product Description
Parameter Estimation and Inverse Problems primarily serves as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and introductory graduate courses. Class notes have been developed and reside on the World Wide Web for faciliting use and feedback by teaching colleagues.
The authors' treatment promotes an understanding of fundamental and practical issus associated with parameter fitting and inverse problems including basic theory of inverse problems, statistical issues, computational issues, and an understanding of how to analyze the success and limitations of solutions to these probles. The text is also a practical resource for general students and professional researchers, where techniques and concepts can be readily picked up on a chapter-by-chapter basis.
Parameter Estimation and Inverse Problems is structured around a course at New Mexico Tech and is designed to be accessible to typical graduate students in the physical sciences who may not have an extensive mathematical background. It is accompanied by a Web site that contains Matlab code corresponding to all examples.
* Designed to be accessible to graduate students and professionals in physical sciences without an extensive mathematical background
* Includes three appendices for review of linear algebra and crucial concepts in statistics
* Battle-tested in courses at several universities
*MATLAB exercises facilitate exploration of material
