Resolution of an inverse Problem by Haar Basis and Legendre Wavelet Methods

In this paper, two numerical methods are presented to solve an ill-posed inverse problem for Fisher's equation using noisy data. These two methods are the Haar basis and the Legendre wavelet methods combined with the Tikhonov regularization method. A sensor located at a point inside the body is used and u(x, t) at a point x = a, 0 < a < 1 is measured and these methods are applied to the inverse problem. We also show that an exponential rate of convergence of these methods. In fact, this work considers a comparative study between the Haar basis and the Legendre wavelet methods to solve some ill-posed inverse problems. Results show that an excellent estimation of the unknown function of the inverse problem which have been obtained within a couple of minutes CPU time at Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU 2.20 GHz.
