On Applied Inverse Problems Conferences
Inverse Problems deal with the reconstruction of quantities of interest from indirect observations. They occur in medical imaging, non-destructive testing, geophysical exploration, astrophysical imaging, many high-resolution microscopy techniques, data mining, finance, econometrics, and other fields. Research on inverse problems combines techniques from mathematical analysis, differential geometry, numerical analysis, machine learning, image processing, scientific computing, and computer science.
The Applied Inverse Problems (AIP) conferences are organized biannually, the first one was held in Montecatini (2001). AIP have become the largest conference series in the field. The last meetings of this series took place in College Station, Texas (2011), Daejeon (2013), Helsinki (2015), Hangzhou (2017), Grenoble (2019), and Götingen (2023).
The next AIP Conference will be held at FGV EMAp, Rio de Janeiro, from July 28 to August 1, 2025 and will bring together academics, practicioners and researchers in the above mentioned areas.
The AIP 2025 conference is jointly organized by
• School of Applied Mathematics at Getulio Vargas Foundation, FGV EMAp (https://emap.fgv.br/en)
• Federal University of St. Catarina, UFSC (https://en.ufsc.br/)
• Inverse Problems International Association, IPIA (https://www.ipia.site/wp/)
