Inverse Problems Seminar: Uncertainty quantification in the biomechanical imaging field
Inverse Problems Seminar
Uncertainty quantification in the biomechanical imaging field
Dr. Olalekan Babaniyi
Assistant Professor
School of Mathematical Sciences, RIT
Abstract:
Biomechanical imaging (aka elastography) is a technique used to estimate the mechanical properties of tissue from measurements of its deformation. These mechanical properties can be used to noninvasively diagnose and monitor the treatment of various diseases. To compute the mechanical properties, one needs to solve an inverse problem. Standard methods to solve these inverse problems fail to account for the uncertainties in the mechanical properties stemming from measurement and modeling errors. In this talk, I present a inversion method that can be used to estimate both the mechanical properties and its uncertainties. I evaluate the performance of the method with noisy simulated data.
Intended Audience:
Undergraduates, graduates, and experts. Those with interest in the topic.
