In this work, a technique is studied for estimating the source term in a two-dimensional reaction– advection–diffusion–source equation. The identification of this term constitutes an ill-posed inverse problem in the sense of Hadamard, since the associated inverse operator is unbounded, which leads to high sensitivity to perturbations in the data. To address this difficulty, a regularization strategy based on the Bidimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (BEMD) is proposed, aimed at mitigating the undesired variability induced by noise present in experimental or simulated measurements. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology, and the obtained results are compared with those reported in the literature, where other classical regularization techniques are employed. In addition, a detailed analysis is carried out on the error distributions and the statistical properties of the approximation relative errors, in order to assess the robustness and stability of the developed approach.
