Landweber iterative regularization method for identifying the unknown source of the time-fractional diffusion equation.

In this paper, we investigate an inverse problem to determine an unknown source term that has a separable-variable form in the time-fractional diffusion equation, whereby the data is obtained at a certain time. This problem is ill-posed, and we use the Landweber iterative regularization method to solve this inverse source problem. Two kinds of convergence rates are obtained by using an a priori and an a posteriori regularization parameters choice rules, respectively. Numerical examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
