reactions that are "closest" to the measured one. This formulation of
the problem is what is now generally called the "deterministic inverse
problem", and it is an optimization problem: Among all possible
-make-ups of the body, which one minimizes the difference between
-predicted measurements and actual measurements.
+make-ups of the body, find the one which *minimizes* the difference between
+predicted measurements and actual measurements.
Since the late 1990s, a second paradigm for the formulation has come
into play: "Bayesian inverse problems". It rests on the observation
