| Abstract | Given a nonlinear state space model, satisfying the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) assumptions: 1) State sequence, Xt, t = 0, 1, 2,.. is a Markov process, i.e. p(xt xt−1, past) = p(xt xt−1). 2) Observations, Yt, t = 1, 2,.. “conditionally independent given state at t”, i.e. p(yt xt, past, future) = p(yt xt) where past � {Y1:t−1, X1:t−1}, future � {Yt+1:T,Xt+1:T}. 3) p(x0), p(xt xt−1), p(yt xt) are known: often expressed using a system and observation model format. B. Goal 1) Denote x0:t = {x0, x1,..xt} and y1:t = {y1, y2,..yt} 2) Find a good approximation to p(x0:t y1:t) or at least to p(xt y1:t) referred to as the posterior. Goal is to estimate I(ft) = ft(xt)p(xt y1:t)dxt (1) for any function of the state ft C. Some Other Techniques 1) If the state space model were linear and Gaussian, then p(xt y1:t) is also Gaussian and its mean and variance are calculated using the Kalman filter. 2) Nonlinear and Gaussian: Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), Gaussian sum filter. Problem: use first or second order Taylor series approximation to original nonlinear system, error in Jacobian estimates propagates over time, may be unstable in certain cases (error keeps increasing): loss of track. If one bad observation: loss of track, cannot come back Cannot track heavily non-Gaussian or multimodal posteriors2 |
