Learning solutions to the source inverse problem of wave equations using LS-SVM

摘要

A method based on least squares support vector machines (LS-SVM) is proposed to solve the source inverse problem of wave equations. Contrary to the most existing methods, the proposed method provides a closed form approximate solution which satisfies the boundary conditions and the initial conditions. The proposed method can recover the unknown source term with the given additional conditions. Furthermore, it has reasonable robustness to noise. Numerical results show the proposed method can be used to solve the source inverse problem of wave equations.
