Inversion of Convection-Diffusion Equation with Discrete Sources

We present a convection-diffusion inverse problem that aims to identify an unknown number of sources and their locations. We model the sources using a binary function, and we show that the inverse problem can be formulated as a large-scale mixed-integer nonlinear optimization problem. We show empirically that current state-of-the-art mixed-integer solvers cannot solve this problem … Read more
