Inverse typically means the opposite of something.

See:

• Antonym - A word with the opposite meaning.
• Inverse chain rule method - Related to integration and differentiation.
• Inverse element - an element x⁻¹ so that x * x⁻¹ = x⁻¹ * x = e, where * is some binary operation and e is the identity element.
• Inverse function - in mathematics, a function that "reverses" the action of a given function.
  • Inverse functions and differentiation
  • Inverse discrete cosine transform

• Inverse multiplexer - Splits a signal into several signals, opposite of a multiplexer.
• Inverse (music) - Oppositional direction of voice movement.
• Inverse problem - The task of identifying model parameters from observed data. See, e.g., Inverse scattering, "inverse kinematics", "inverse dynamics".
