Spline-based methods have been applied to inverse problems in science and engineering. Those studies have shown that if proper spline bases can be chosen, problem complexity can be significantly reduced while increasing estimation accuracy and robustness against the disturbances. We proposed non-parametric regression spline based approach for the solution of inverse ECG problem and assessed its robustness against measurement noise, variation of the heart size from its true size, and their combination. Our model defines the spline functions in terms of spatial coordinate variables based on the given epicardial surface geometry. The results demonstrated that, proposed method performed better than the Tikhonov regularization and can be feasible alternative for the inverse ECG problem.

Periodic solutions of the hybrid system with small parameter
Akhmet, Marat; Ergenc, T. (Elsevier BV, 2008-06-01)
In this paper we investigate the existence and stability of the periodic solutions of a quasilinear differential equation with piecewise constant argument. The continuous and differentiable dependence of the solutions on the parameter and the initial value is considered. A new Gronwall-Bellman type lemma is proved. Appropriate examples are constructed.
Finite anti-plane shear of compressible hyperelastic tubes
Erarslanoğlu, G.; Ertepınar, A. (Elsevier BV, 1990-1)
Finite, anti-plane shear of a long, hyperelastic, compressible circular cylindrical tube is investigated using the theory of finite elasticity. The highly nonlinear, coupled, ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients governing the problem are solved numerically using the method of adjoints. The effect of the compressibility of the material is studied in several numerical examples.
Statistical tolerancing using designed experiments in a noisy environment
Köksal, Gülser (Elsevier BV, 2003-03-01)
We consider the method of designed experiments for statistical tolerance analysis, and study the impact of experimental error on its results.-It is observed that presence of random error in the experiment environment (e.g. laboratory) could introduce bias in the moment estimators and increases their-respective variances. We propose adjustments to the method that would reduce the bias as well as the variance of these estimators. A numerical example is presented.
Evaluation of multivariate adaptive non-parametric reduced-order model for solving the inverse electrocardiography problem: a simulation study
Onak, Onder Nazim; Serinağaoğlu Doğrusöz, Yeşim; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-05-01)
In the inverse electrocardiography (ECG) problem, the goal is to reconstruct the heart's electrical activity from multichannel body surface potentials and a mathematical model of the torso. Over the years, researchers have employed various approaches to solve this ill-posed problem including regularization, optimization, and statistical estimation. It is still a topic of interest especially for researchers and clinicians whose goal is to adopt this technique in clinical applications. Among the wide range of...
Stability analysis of constraints in flexible multibody systems dynamics
İder, Sıtkı Kemal (Elsevier BV, 1990-1)
Automated algorithms for the dynamic analysis and simulation of constrained multibody systems assume that the constraint equations are linearly independent. During the motion, when the system is at a singular configuration, the constraint Jacobian matrix possesses less than full rank and hence it results in singularities. This occurs when the direction of a constraint coincides with the direction of the lost degree of freedom. In this paper the constraint equations for deformable bodies are modified for use...
