On Second Order Shape Optimization Methods for Electrical Impedance Tomography

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: This paper is devoted to the analysis of a second order method for recovering the emph{a priori} unknown shape of an inclusion omega inside a body Omega from boundary measurement. This inverse problem - known as electrical impedance tomography - has many important practical applications and hence has focussed much attention during the last years. However, to our best knowledge, no work has yet considered a second order approach for this problem. This paper aims to fill that void: we investigate the existence of second order derivative of the state u with respect to perturbations of the shape of the interface partialomega, then we choose a cost function in order to recover the geometry of partialomega and derive the expression of the derivatives needed to implement the corresponding Newton method. We then investigate the stability of the process and explain why this inverse problem is severely ill-posed by proving the compactness of the Hessian at the global minimizer.
