Abstract The forward-model approach has been shown to produce accurate
reconstructions of scientific measurements for single-time image data. Here we extend the approach to a series of images that are correlated in time using the physics-based constraints that are often available with scientific imaging. The constraints are implemented through a representational bias in the model and, owing to the smooth nature of the physics evolution in the specified model, provide an effective temporal regularization. Unlike more general temporal regularization techniques, this restricts the space of solutions to those that are physically realizable. We explore the performance of this approach on a simple radiographic imaging problem of a simulated object evolving in time. We demonstrate that the constrained simultaneous analysis of the image sequence outperforms the independent forward modeling analysis over a range of degrees of freedom in the physics constraints, including when the physics model is under-constrained. Further, this approach outperforms the independent analysis over a large range of signal-to-noise levels.

Time Series Analysis
• To date we have analyzed each element of DARHT axis 2 time series data independently
• But we should be able to use information in the time series to compensate for some of the noise, and get better results.

Now, physics-based constraints on the evolution of the time-series data will also constrain the (global) solution

These physics-based constraints will maximize information extracted from each dataset
Concept: Can we learn something about the solution at time 3 (blue) from the data at surrounding times?
Approach: use physics to constrain solution at each time based upon time-series of data.
WHEN WILL THIS APPROACH HAVE GREATEST VALUE?When certain conditions are met:1) Must have the time between measurements (Dt) on the order of a relevant time scale of the flow; and
2) Must have non-perfect data (due to noise, background levels, etc).

Consider an evolving interface:
Data must be correlated in time!
Perfect data would be the only required constraint… (Noisier data means the global optimization adds more value).

Time Series Results
Time series analysis involves a far more difficult optimization problem than is present in static analysis.
Interestingly enough, with lower noise levels the optimization problem is more “difficult” in the sense that it is possible to refine the answer to a greater degree
When the optimization problem can be solved, time series analysis can outperform static analysis for some combinations of noise and temporal degrees of freedom.
The number of optimization steps necessary before time series analysis outperforms static analysis depends on the noise and the temporal degrees of freedom.

Conclusions
Time series analysis shows potential for real applications at DARHT • Improvement will depend on the noise level present in the
data.• Improvement will depend on how tightly the physics can
constrain the temporal motion of the object• Complex global optimization will likely require improvements in
the BIE’s function optimization algorithms
