Resolution Analysis for Discrete Systems

摘要: summary. Treatments of geophysical inverse problems have tended to polarize into approaches intended generate models either described by piecewise continuous functions or with some prior discretization. The two are here developed in parallel, and the ideas a trade-off between anticipated error attainable level detail model estimate extended discrete case, even uneven discretization. An alternative approach specifying potential resolution is establish upper lower bounds on parameter values. Linear programming methods determine which allow for subjective limits values. For non-linear system possible may be investigated estimation procedures based full set successful solutions obtained Monte-Carlo inversion.
