A Critical Comparison of Shape Sensing Algorithms: The Calibration Matrix Method versus iFEM [PDF]
Two shape-sensing algorithms, the calibration matrix (CM) method and the inverse Finite Element Method (iFEM), were compared on their ability to accurately reconstruct displacements, strains, and loads and on their computational efficiency.

Towards Automatic Crack Size Estimation with iFEM for Structural Health Monitoring [PDF]
The inverse finite element method (iFEM) is a model-based technique to compute the displacement (and then the strain) field of a structure from strain measurements and a geometrical discretization of the same. Different literature works exploit the error
