Inverse problems refer to a class of problems where one seeks to deduce unknown causes or parameters from observed effects or data. This is contrasted with direct problems, where the process is straightforward: given a set of inputs, one can directly compute the outputs. Inverse problems typically arise in fields such as physics, engineering, medical imaging, geophysics, and many other areas where one must infer the properties of a system from measured data.
