Solving in real time inverse problems for biomedical applications requires learning techniques that involve simulations and databases from different patients which inevitably involve anatomical variations.
We present a state estimation method which allows to take this variability into account without needing any a priori knowledge on a parametrization of the anatomical differences. We rely on morphometric techniques involving Multidimensional Scaling and couple them with reconstruction techniques that make use of reduced modeling [1].
We prove the potential of the method on a simple application inspired from the reconstruction of blood flows and quantities of medical interest with Doppler ultrasound imaging [2, 3, 4].
