Describes the application of several recently developed global optimization methods to geophysical problems. Emphasizes the practical aspects of the algorithms, but also explicates several parts of the theory in sufficient detail for the reader to understand the fundamental principles on which they are based. Intended to provide students, researchers, and practitioners with enough information and insight to design algorithms to solve their own specific geophysical inversion problems. Assumes only a fundamental mathematical background that includes linear algebra and calculus. Suitable as a text for a one-semester graduate course in geophysical inversion.
