Fixed-Point Algorithms for Inverse Problems in Science and Engineering
(Springer, 2011)
SCI 236
Fixed-Point Algorithms for Inverse Problems in Science and Engineering presents some of the most recent work from leading researchers in variational and numerical analysis. The contributions in this collection provide state-of-the-art theory and practice in first-order fixed-point algorithms, identify emerging problems driven by applications, and discuss new approaches for solving these problems.
This book is a compendium of topics explored at the Banff International Research Station “Interdisciplinary Workshop on Fixed-Point Algorithms for Inverse Problems in Science and Engineering” in November of 2009. The workshop included a broad range of research including variational analysis, numerical linear algebra, biotechnology, materials science, computational solid-state physics, and chemistry.
Key topics and features of this book include:
– Theory of Fixed-point algorithms: variational analysis, convex analysis, convex and non-convex optimization, subdifferential calculus, nonsmooth analysis, proximal point methods, projection methods, resolvent and related fixed-point theoretic methods, and monotone operator theory
– Numerical analysis of fixed-point algorithms: choice of step lengths, of weights, of blocks for block-iterative and parallel methods, and of relaxation parameters; regularization of ill-posed problems; numerical comparison of various methods
– Applications: Image and signal processing, antenna optimization, location problems
The wide scope of applications presented in this volume easily serve as a basis for new and innovative research and collaboration.

UBC Okanagan Classroom Artwork Project
The University of British Columbia Okanagan Classroom Artwork Project aims to display academically inspiring artwork in classrooms and other teaching areas of the university.
Artwork displayed as part of this project – including the covers of books and journals containing work written or edited by UBCO scholars and researchers – is intended to help enliven university teaching spaces, educate classroom users about the connections between research and teaching, and introduce members of the broader public to some of the research and scholarship carried out at UBCO.
How to Submit Artwork
If you know of other book or journal covers, or other academically inspiring artwork that is connected to work carried out by UBCO artists, scholars or researchers and that is consistent with UBCO’s educational mission, please email your suggestions to classroom.artwork@ubc.ca.
The UBC Okanagan Classroom Artwork Project began in 2019 with support from the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences. It is now a joint project of UBCO’s Faculties and the Office of the Provost.
Artwork and other images that are a part of this project are displayed solely for educational purposes.
