Abstract: Our interest lies in the identification of hidden conducting permeable objects from measurements of the perturbed magnetic field in metal detection taken over range of low frequencies. The magnetic polarizability tensor (MPT) provides a characterisation of a conducting permeable object using a small number of coefficients, has explicit formula for their calculation and a well understood frequency behaviour, which we call its spectral signature. However, to compute such signatures, and build a library of them for object classification, requires repeated solution of a direct (full order) problem, which is typically accomplished using a finite element discretisation. To overcome this issue, we propose an efficient reduced order model (ROM) using a proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) for the rapid computation of MPT spectral signatures. Our ROM benefits from output certificates, which give bounds on the accuracy of the predicted outputs with respect to the full order model solutions. To further increase the efficiency of the computation of the MPT spectral signature, we provide scaling results, which enable an immediate calculation of the signature under changes in the object size or conductivity. We illustrate our approach by application to a range of homogenous and inhomogeneous conducting permeable objects.
