“…The considered inverse problem encountered in many practical applications such as the identification of multiple leak zones in saturated unsteady flow, see previous work 13 and obstacle identification problems. In the framework of the parabolic equation, many approaches have been proposed in the literature for solving this ill‐posed inverse problem with varying degrees of success, we can cite the boundary integral equation approach, see Chapko and Johansson 14 and Onyango et al, 15 iterative regularization methods, we quote previous works 13,16 and Johansson, 17 quasi‐reversibility process, see Dardé, 18 the minimization of a cost functional, see Rischette et al, 19 and the decomposition approach see Lesnic and Elliott 20 …”
