An Adaptive Regularized Solution to Inverse Ill-Posed Models

The ill-posed models are widely encountered in various inversions of geodesy and remote sensing. The regularization approaches can significantly stabilize the solution to ill-posed models since the high-frequency noise is effectively suppressed. Although the famous Tikhonov regularization and truncated singular value decomposition (TSVD) regularization have been widely applied in various geodetic applications, there still remain theoretical drawbacks for either single regularization. For Tikhonov regularization, given a regularization parameter, the low-frequency terms are over-regularized, and high-frequency terms are under-regularized. For TSVD regularization, some medium-frequency terms will be mistaken for high-frequency terms to be truncated and the hidden signals will be lost. For this reason, we propose an adaptive regularized solution in spectral form, which adaptively divides the terms of different frequencies into three kinds: 1) the low-frequency terms are not regularized; 2) the medium-frequency terms are regularized by the Tikhonov method; and 3) the high-frequency terms are regularized by the TSVD method. The analytical conditions for determining the term sets are derived based on the criteria that the introduced biases should be smaller than the reduced errors; in other words, the mean square error (MSE) should be reduced. The two examples are presented to demonstrate the performance of our adaptive regularization. The first numerical example is solving the Fredholm integral equation of the first kind, which is widely encountered in remote sensing inversions. The simulations clearly demonstrate that the adaptive regularized solution can improve the MSE of ordinary Tikhonov and TSVD regularized functions by 25.00% and 9.09%, respectively. In the second example, we apply the new method to investigate the mass variation of the Yangtze River Basin based on the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) time-variable gravity field model. The Tongji-Grace 2018 monthly gravity field solutions from April 2002 to December 2016 are used to construct the mascon observation equation. The results show that our method also outperforms the ordinary Tikhonov and TSVD regularized solutions, with mean MSE reductions of about 13.40% and 11.69%, respectively. Furthermore, the spatial resolution of secular trend derived by our method is improved and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of mass variation series is higher than the other two regularizations.
