We consider a size-structured model for cell division and address the question of determining the division (birth) rate from the measured stable size distribution of the population. We propose a new regularization technique based on a filtering approach. We prove convergence of the algorithm and validate the theoretical results by implementing numerical simulations, based on classical techniques. We compare the results for direct and inverse problems, for the filtering method and for the quasi-reversibility method proposed in [Perthame-Zubelli].

The aim of this work is twofold. First, we survey the techniques developed in (Perthame, Zubelli, 2007) and (Doumic, Perthame, Zubelli, 2008) to reconstruct the division (birth) rate from the cell volume distribution data in certain structured popula tion models. Secondly, we implement such techniques on experimental cell volume distributions available in the literature so as to validate the theoretical and numerical results. As a proof of concept, we use the data reported in the classical work of Kubitschek [3] concerning Escherichia coli in vitro experiments measured by means of a Coulter transducer-multichannel analyzer system (Coulter Electronics, Inc., Hialeah, Fla, USA.) Despite the rather old measurement technology, the reconstructed division rates still display potentially useful biological features.
In this paper we consider a size-structured population model where individuals may be recruited into the population at different sizes. First and second order finite difference schemes are developed to approximate the solution of the mathematical mod el. The convergence of the approximations to a unique weak solution with bounded total variation is proved. We then show that as the distribution of the new recruits become concentrated at the smallest size, the weak solution of the distributed states-at-birth model converges to the weak solution of the classical Gurtin-McCamy-type size-structured model in the weak$^*$ topology. Numerical simulations are provided to demonstrate the achievement of the desired accuracy of the two methods for smooth solutions as well as the superior performance of the second-order method in resolving solution-discontinuities. Finally we provide an example where supercritical Hopf-bifurcation occurs in the limiting single state-at-birth model and we apply the second-order numerical scheme to show that such bifurcation occurs in the distributed model as well.
For the first time, we develop a convergent numerical method for the llinear integral equation derived by M.M. Lavrentev in 1964 with the goal to solve a coefficient inverse problem for a wave-like equation in 3D. The data are non overdetermined. Con vergence analysis is presented along with the numerical results. An intriguing feature of the Lavrentev equation is that, without any linearization, it reduces a highly nonlinear coefficient inverse problem to a linear integral equation of the first kind. Nevertheless, numerical results for that equation, which use the data generated for that coefficient inverse problem, show a good reconstruction accuracy. This is similar with the classical Gelfand-Levitan equation derived in 1951, which is valid in the 1D case.
The inverse problem methodology is a commonly-used framework in the sciences for parameter estimation and inference. It is typically performed by fitting a mathematical model to noisy experimental data. There are two significant sources of error in t he process: 1. Noise from the measurement and collection of experimental data and 2. numerical error in approximating the true solution to the mathematical model. Little attention has been paid to how this second source of error alters the results of an inverse problem. As a first step towards a better understanding of this problem, we present a modeling and simulation study using a simple advection-driven PDE model. We present both analytical and computational results concerning how the different sources of error impact the least squares cost function as well as parameter estimation and uncertainty quantification. We investigate residual patterns to derive an autocorrelative statistical model that can improve parameter estimation and confidence interval computation for first order methods. Building on the results of our investigation, we provide guidelines for practitioners to determine when numerical or experimental error is the main source of error in their inference, along with suggestions of how to efficiently improve their results.
We consider a weak adversarial network approach to numerically solve a class of inverse problems, including electrical impedance tomography and dynamic electrical impedance tomography problems. We leverage the weak formulation of PDE in the given inv erse problem, and parameterize the solution and the test function as deep neural networks. The weak formulation and the boundary conditions induce a minimax problem of a saddle function of the network parameters. As the parameters are alternatively updated, the network gradually approximates the solution of the inverse problem. We provide theoretical justifications on the convergence of the proposed algorithm. Our method is completely mesh-free without any spatial discretization, and is particularly suitable for problems with high dimensionality and low regularity on solutions. Numerical experiments on a variety of test inverse problems demonstrate the promising accuracy and efficiency of our approach.
