In this paper, we focus on the estimation of the inverse solution, i.e., to find the set(s) of input combinations of the simulator that generates a pre-determined simulator output. Ranjan et al. [1] proposed an expected improvement criterion under a sequential design framework for the inverse problem with a scalar valued simulator. In this paper, we focus on the inverse problem for a time-series valued simulator. We have used a few simulated and two real examples for performance comparison. %K Calibration %K Computer Experiments %K Contour Estimation %K Gaussian Process Model %K Non-Stationary Process %K Sequential Design %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=67748
