Banana-shaped minima region in objective function

One of the challenges of inverse problems is that the line search often must go through minima regions that have challenging shapes. This tutorial illustrates a "banana"-shaped minimum region
imb=  mk_common_model('a2c2',16);
img= mk_image(imb,1); %show_fem(img,[0,0,1]);
vv = fwd_solve(img); vv = vv.meas;
p1 = [29,28]; p2 = [19,20];

sp = logspace(-2.5,2.5,40);
for i = length(sp):-1:1
   for j = length(sp):-1:1
      img.elem_data(p1) = sp(i);
      img.elem_data(p2) = sp(j);
      v2 = fwd_solve(img); 
      M(i,j) = norm(vv-v2.meas);
   end
end
img.elem_data(p1) = 10^(+.1);
img.elem_data(p2) = 10^(-.1);
subplot(121);show_fem(img,[0,0,1]);
clim = [min(M(:)),max(M(:))]*(eye(2)-[1,0;1,0]/20);
subplot(122);imagesc(log10(sp),log10(sp),M,clim); axis image
