General information
The course offers an introduction to the subject of statistical inversion, where, in its most basic form, the goal is to study how to estimate model parameters from data. We will introduce mathematical concepts and computational tools for systematically treating these inverse problems in a Bayesian framework, including an assessment of how uncertainties affect the solution. In the first part of the course, we will study the Bayesian framework for finite-dimensional inverse problems. While the first part will introduce some machine-learning ideas already, the second part will address how machine learning is impacting, and has the potential to impact further on, the subject of inverse problems. In the final part of the course, we will generalize the Bayesian inverse problem theory to a Banach space setting and discuss sampling strategies for accessing the Bayesian posterior.
