Many scientific, medical or engineering problems raise the issue of
recovering some physical quantities from indirect measurements; for
instance, detecting or quantifying flaws or cracks within a
material from acoustic or electromagnetic measurements at its
surface is an essential problem of non-destructive evaluation. The
concept of inverse problems precisely originates from the idea of
inverting the laws of physics to recover a quantity of interest
from measurable data.
Unfortunately, most inverse problems are ill-posed, which means
that precise and stable solutions are not easy to devise.
Regularization is the key concept to solve inverse problems.
The goal of this book is to deal with inverse problems and
regularized solutions using the Bayesian statistical tools, with a
particular view to signal and image estimation.
The first three chapters bring the theoretical notions that make it
possible to cast inverse problems within a mathematical framework.
The next three chapters address the fundamental inverse problem of
deconvolution in a comprehensive manner. Chapters 7 and 8 deal with
advanced statistical questions linked to image estimation. In the
last five chapters, the main tools introduced in the previous
chapters are put into a practical context in important applicative
areas, such as astronomy or medical imaging.

关于作者
Jérôme Idier was born in France in 1966. He
received the diploma degree in electrical engineering from the
Ecole Superieure d’Electricité, Gif-sur-Yvette, France, in
1988, the Ph.D. degree in physics from the Universite de Paris-Sud,
Orsay, France, in 1991, and the HDR (Habilitation a diriger des
recherches) from the same university in 2001. Since 1991, he is a
full time researcher at CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche
Scientifique). He has been with the Laboratoire des Signaux et
Systemes from 1991 to 2002, and with IRCCy N (Institut de Recherches
en Cybernetique de Nantes (IRCCy N) since september 2002.
His major scientific interest is in statistical approaches to
inverse problems for signal and image processing. More
specifically, he studies probabilistic modeling, inference and
optimization issues yielded by data processing problems such as
denoising, deconvolution, spectral analysis, reconstruction from
projections. The investigated applications are mainly non
destructive testing, astronomical imaging and biomedical signal
processing, and also radar imaging and geophysics. Dr Idier has
been involved in joint research programs with several specialized
research centers: EDF (Electricite de France), CEA (Commissariat a
l’Energie Atomique), CNES (Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales),
ONERA (Office National d’Etudes et de Recherches Aerospatiales),
Loreal, Thales, Schlumberger.
