Summary

A finite element like least squares method is introduced for determining the density function in the Preisach hysteresis model from overdeterined measured data. It is shown that the least squares error depends on the quality of the data and the best approximations to the analytic density. For consistent data criteria are given for convergence of the approximate density and Preisach operator with increasing measurements.
