Abstract A fast algorithm for calculating the gradient of the Tikhonov functional is proposed for solving inverse coefficient problems for linear partial differential equations of a general form by the regularization method. The algorithm is designed for problems with discretized differential operators that linearly depend on the desired coefficients. When discretizing the problem and calculating the gradient, it is possible to use the finite element method. As an illustration, we consider the solution of two inverse problems of elastography using the finite element method: finding the distribution of Young’s modulus in biological tissue from data on its compression and a similar problem of determining the characteristics of local oncological inclusions, which have a special parametric form.
