Abstract
The inverse problem of recovering an unknown boundary function given some information about the (interior) solution is considered. It is assumed that the forward problem is governed by a linear partial differential equation (PDE) and that homogeneous boundary conditions exist on the rest of the boundary. A method developed by Tarantola (Tar87) is used which is based upon statistical inference on finite dimensional random vectors. Within this framework, a method for constructing Gaussian probability density functions which model the forward problem is proposed.
