The level set method for capturing moving fronts was introduced in 1987 by
Osher and Sethian. It has proven to be phenomenally successful as a
numerical device. For example, typing in "Level Set Methods" on Google's
search engine gives roughly 4000 responses. Applications range from
capturing multiphase fluid dynamical flows, to special effects in
Hollywood to visualization,image processing, control, epitaxial growth,
computer vision and many more. In this talk we shall give a quick overview
of the numerical technology, where it fits in the general field ofinverse
problems and some applications.
