title: "FIPS: Flexible Inverse Problem Solver"
version: 0.1.0b1
date-released: 2026-03-02
abstract: "Inverse problems in geophysics and atmospheric science are incredibly complex, often involving massive state spaces, deeply heterogeneous observational networks, and explicit matrix-algebra requirements. FIPS (Flexible Inverse Problem Solver) is built from the ground up to solve linear, matrix-based inverse problems without losing the context of your data. It provides structural flexibility to handle messy, real-world realities seamlessly with native N-dimensional alignment, modular block architecture, and analytical speed with sparse support."
