Title: Multimodal Inverse Problems and Multilevel Optimization for X-ray Imaging Science

X-ray imaging experiments generate vast datasets that are often incomplete or ill-posed when considered in isolation. One way forward is multimodal data analysis, where complementary measurement modalities are fused to reduce ambiguity and improve reconstructions. A key question, both mathematically and practically, is how to identify which modalities to combine and how best to integrate them within an inverse problem framework.

A second line of work focuses on the computational challenge: even for single-modality inverse problems, the resulting optimization problems are large-scale, nonlinear, and nonconvex. Here, I will discuss multilevel optimization and stochastic sampling strategies that accelerate convergence by exploiting hierarchical structure in both parameter and data spaces.

Although developed separately, these two directions point toward a common goal: building scalable, optimization-based frameworks that make the best use of diverse data to enable new discoveries in X-ray imaging science.
