Abstract
In this paper we consider the regularization method applied to an ill-posed problem including Fredholm integral equation of the first kind. The method reduces to the determination of the optimal regularization parameter. To estimate the optimal parameter for a certain class of problems, we first define a subset of the semi-infinite interval [0, ∞) called the optimal region and prove that the optimal parameter lies in the region. Next we introduce a function to estimate the optimal region and show that the function is a good estimator for the class of problems.
