Image Reconstruction Based on Combination of Inverse Scattering Technique and Total Variation Regularization Method

In this research, Total Variation (TV) regularization method was incorporated with the Forward-Backward Time-Stepping (FBTS) algorithm to deal with the ill-posedness of the inverse scattering problem in the time domain. The effectiveness between FBTS without and with regularization method is compare...
