The inverse problem in magnetopneumography

Use of hypothetical distributions and quadratic programming

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento D

Summary

The inverse problem in the magnetic measurement of the lung was studied with a method using hypothetical distributions of magnetic dust. Both unconstrained and constrained minimizations of an objective function were performed. Simulations and analysis showed the efficacy of the method.

Riassunto

Il problema inverso nella misurazione magnetical del polmone è stato studiato con un metodo che usa le ipotetiche distribuzioni del pulviscolo magnetico. Si sono fatte le minimizzazioni non vincolate e vincolate di una funzione obiettiva. Le simulazioni e l’analisi hanno mostrato l’efficacia del metodo.
