Lecture 6 Sharp changes

This lecture concentrated on reconstruction algorithms for sharp changes. I concentrated mainly on Monotonicity method and Factorization. I referred to the slides for a talk given in Korea in 2006, so you will need this open to follow as it is not easy to see on the video.

There are references at the end of the slides, but for factorization method there are some more recent work that might be a better place to start.

I did not go in to TV that much but there are more details on the slides.

Videos All in one file, Or in chunks part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4.


Here is the web interface Brühl's factorization code.

Lecture 5: drive and measurement patterns

This was a bit unplanned but following a phone call to Andy Adler on Thursday I decided to talk about drive and measurement patterns, so it if it seems a bit rambling and unplanned it was.

Videos here part1, part2, part3,part4.

Lecture 4 Solving the forward problem

Today's topic is solving the forward problem. For the discussion of FEM I will refer to my book chapter in Holder's book with Nick Polydorides and Andrea Borsic (see preprint version). Theses are also useful, Marko Vaukhonen's and Nick Polydorides' (see reading list)

Lecture 3 videos now here

This is just here to trigger your RSS feed or whatever, I'll delete it when people have noticed...I am not yet convinced of this "email lists are so last century" idea and new fangled things like RSS feeds and blogger followers, well we will see how it works.

Yes it is Friday at 11am

We are continuing on Fridays at 11-12, in the same room, except for Nov 26th. We probably wont have a lecture then as the room is booked by someone else and one of my students is being viva'd. We will endeavour to put the lectures on the web the same day but some times (eg this time) it might slip to Monday

Lecture 3

Time for some vector calculus and linear algebra. I started by explaining the so-called Louiville transformation between the conductivity and stationary Schrödinger equation. Then we went on to least squares solution of over determined linear systems, Tikhonov regularization and the SVD.

This material is covered in more detail in my lecture notes for a course we used to teach use the username inverse and the password crime to access this page and look at chapter 3 of the notes.

Updates

We have added links to the lectures in avi files split up in to (less than) 15 min chunks. I am experimenting with Youtube. Please post in comments to let us know if this works for you. Also I have put up some homework problems on the blog post for lecture 2.
