Anderssen (cochair), M. Hegland (cochair), P. Leopardi, S. Roberts, A. Irvine (admin) Program Committee: B. Hofmann (chair), M. Hanke-Bourgeois, D. N. Hao, M. Hegland, P. Lamm, S. Pereverzyev, O.Scherzer, M. Yamamoto Scientific Advisory Committee: R.S. Anderssen (chair), G. Chavent, J, Cheng, H. Engl, C. Groetsch, A. Louis, Z. Nashed, J. Zou, J. Zubelli Scope and Purpose Progress with the mathematical analysis of regularisation is fundamental to its utilization in the solution of ill-posed problems. Recent research has focussed on nonlinear regularisation techniques which make use of the sparsity structure of the data, but also work on non-standard source conditions and convergence rates of linear regularisation methods. The aim of this meeting is to bring together researchers and students who have been actively involved with these recent mathematical developments to highlight the mathematics involved, to identify some of the future challenges, to exchange ideas on how to tackle such challenges and to form research collaborations. In addition, to encourage student participation, tutorial-style introductions to these new developments will be organized as a prelude to the symposium. In general terms, the theme of the meeting is the effect that the mathematical properties of the data and the regularisation techniques jointly have on the accuracy and efficiency of the associated information recovery. Format One week of talks, no parallel sessions, some longer (invited) some shorter (contributed) talks. Audience Around 100 participants from Australia and overseas, in particular, Germany, Austria, Japan, Vietnam and others. Funding Supported by the Centre for Mathematics and Its Applications of the ANU. Other support under negotiation.

This is the seventh International Conference on Inverse Problems in Engineering: Theory and Practice (ICIPE) series, initiated in Palm Coast (USA) in 1993. Noteworthy features of all ICIPE meetings are their balanced focus on theory and applications (and, better yet, the combination of both) and strive to provide an atmosphere aimed at maximizing opportunities for interactions between participants. The previous two ICIPE conferences were held in Paris (France) in 2008 and in Cambridge (UK) in July 2005.

Objectives of the Conference: Inverse problems have been studied intensively in the establishment of mathematical theories and its applications to various engineering disciplines. An increasing involvement with industrial research in related to medical tomography, non-destructive testing, and geophysics has been observed due to the recent new development in both the fundamental theory and computational method. To extend a stronger collaboration link among the universities of Asia-Pacific regions and worldwide leading researchers in inverse problems, a first international conference on inverse problems was held at City University of Hong Kong during January 9-12, 2002. More than 120 participants from Asian-American-European countries had attended the conference with fruitful achievements. This series of conferences had also been held in Shanghai (2004 China), Hokkaido (2006 Japan), and Daejeon (2009 Korea). It is now an appropriate time to hold the fifth international conference on inverse problems in Hong Kong. The main purpose of the "International Conference on Inverse Problems" is to address both theoretical (mathematics), applied (engineering) and development aspects of inverse problems. It is envisioned that the conference will draw researchers from the Asian, American and European scientific communities. The conference is intended to nurture Asian-American-European collaborations in this evolving interdisciplinary area. Additionally, one of the focuses of the conference is to strengthen the application of inverse problems to engineering disciplines. Submitted by: Benny Y. C.
