The challenge here is that most inverse problems have the vulnerability that even small perturbations in the data can trigger high oscillations in the solution.

In Bayern ist die Klingenberger Initiative einzigartig. Möglich wurde sie nur als Modellprojekt, weil sie wissenschaftlich begleitet wurde.
