“…That is why, a unique solution does not necessarily exist and the solution may be unstable to small changes in the input data (Liu and Ball, 1999). Over the years different methodologies have been proposed for groundwater pollution source identification, e.g., least square regression and linear programming with response matrix approach (Gorelick et al, 1983), statistical pattern recognition (Datta et al, 1989), random walk based backward tracking model (Bagtzoglou et al, 1992), nonlinear maximum likelihood estimation (Wagner, 1992), minimum relative entropy (Woodbury and Ulrych, 1996;Woodbury et al, 1998), nonlinear optimization with embedding technique (Mahar and Datta, 1997, 2001, correlation coefficient optimization (Sidauruk et al, 1997), backward probabilistic model Wilson, 1999, 2005;Neupauer et al, 2000), geostatistical inversion approach (Snodgrass and Kitanidis, 1997;Butera and Tanda, 2003;Michalak and Kitanidis, 2004a, b), Tikhonov regularization (Skaggs and Kabala, 1994;Liu and Ball, 1999), quasireversibility (Skaggs and Kabala, 1995;Bagtzoglou and Atmadja, 2003), marching-jury backward beam equation (Atmadja and Bagtzoglou, 2001a;Bagtzoglou and Atmadja, 2003;Bagtzoglou and Baun, 2005), genetic algorithm based approach (Aral et al, 2001;Mahinthakumar and Sayeed, 2005;Singh and Datta, 2006), artificial neural network approach Datta, 2004, 2007;, constrained robust least square approach (Sun et al, 2006a, b), classical optimization based approach (Datta et al, 2009a, b), robust geostatistical approach (Sun, 2007), inverse particle tracking approach (Bagtzoglou, 2003;Ababou et al, 2010).…”
