      The following homogeneous parabolic equation is considered: \[ \frac{\partial u}{\partial t}(t,x)- \nabla.(b(t,x) \nabla u(t,x))= f(t,x) \tag{1} \] with initial and boundary conditions (given). The inverse problem consists in recovering the parameter \(b\) when \(f\) and \(u(0,x)= u_0(x)\) are given. A functional \(J(u,b)\) obtained from equation (1) and suitable norms is first built then minimized according to \(b\). Numerical results are given. Furthermore, semi-discrete and fully discrete estimates of the rate of convergence are proved when the finite element and Crank-Nicolson methods are applied.
