It covers widely used approaches to recover information about the objects and examines the assumptions made \u003cem\u003ea priori\u003c\/em\u003e about the object and the consequences of recovering object information from limited numbers of noisy measurements of the scattered fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book explores the strengths and weaknesses of using inverse methods for weak scattering. These methods, including Fourier-based signal and image processing techniques, allow more straightforward inverse algorithms to be exploited based on a simple mapping of scattered field data.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors also discuss their recent approach based on a nonlinear filtering step in the inverse algorithm. They illustrate how to use this algorithm through numerous two-dimensional electromagnetic scattering examples. MATLAB® code is provided to help readers quickly apply the approach to a wide variety of inverse scattering problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn later chapters of the book, the authors focus on important and often forgotten overarching constraints associated with exploiting inverse scattering algorithms. They explain how the number of degrees of freedom associated with any given scattering experiment can be found and how this allows one to specify a minimum number of data that should be measured. They also describe how the prior discrete Fourier transform (PDFT) algorithm helps in estimating the properties of an object from scattered field measurements. The PDFT restores stability and improves estimates of the object even with severely limited data (provided it is sufficient to meet a criterion based on the number of degrees of freedom).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuitable for graduate students and researchers working on medical, geophysical, defense, and industrial inspection inverse problems, this self-contained book provides the necessary details for readers to design improved experiments and process measured data more effectively. It shows how to obtain the best estimate of a strongly scattering object from limited scattered field data.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32067080355923,"sku":"","price":210.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781466569584.jpg?v=1777959945","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/introduction-to-imaging-from-scattered-fields","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
