Regularization of the discrete source problem in the nonlinear diffusive-logistic equation

A numerical algorithm for regularization of the solution of the source problem for the diffusion-logistic model based on information about the process at fixed moments of time of integral type has been developed. The peculiarity of the problem under study is the discrete formulation in space and impossibility to apply classical algorithms for its numerical solution. The regularization of the problem is based on the application of A.N. Tikhonov's approach and a priori information about the source of the process. The problem was formulated in a variational formulation and solved by the global tensor optimization method. It is shown that in the case of noisy data regularization improves the accuracy of the reconstructed source.
