TITLE	A Level Set Reduced Basis Approach to Parameter Estimation
AUTHORS	Martin A. Grepl, Karen Veroy
ABSTRACT	We introduce an efficient level set framework to parameter estimation problems governed by parametrized partial differential equations. The main ingredients are: (i) an “admissible region” approach to parameter estimation; (ii) the certified reduced basis method for efficient and reliable solution of parametrized partial differential equations; and (iii) a parameter-space level set method for construction of the admissible region. The method can handle nonconvex and multiply connected regions. Numerical results for two examples in design and inverse problems illustrate the versatility of the approach.
