The particle filter provides a general solution to the nonlinear filtering problem with arbitrarily accuracy. However, the curse of dimensionality prevents its application in cases where the state dimensionality is high. Further, estimation of stationary parameters is a known challenge in a particle filter framework. We suggest a marginalization approach for the case of unknown noise distribution parameters that avoid both aforementioned problem. First, the standard approach of augmenting the state vector with sensor offsets and scale factors is avoided, so the state dimension is not increased. Second, the mean and covariance of both process and measurement noises are represented with parametric distributions, whose statistics are updated adaptively and analytically using the concept of conjugate prior distributions. The resulting marginalized particle filter is applied to and illustrated with a standard example from literature.

Marginalized particle filters for Bayesian estimation of Gaussian noise parameters Zhao, Yuxin; Yin, Feng; Gunnarsson, Fredrik; Amirijoo, Mehdi; Özkan, Emre; Gustafsson, Fredrik (2010-07-26) The particle filter provides a general solution to the nonlinear filtering problem with arbitrarily accuracy. However, the curse of dimensionality prevents its application in cases where the state dimensionality is high. Further, estimation of stationary parameters is a known challenge in a particle filter framework. We suggest a marginalization approach for the case of unknown noise distribution parameters that avoid both aforementioned problem. First, the standard approach of augmenting the state vector w...
A novel adaptive unscented Kalman filter for pico satellite attitude estimation Söken, Halil Ersin (2011-09-08) Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) is a filtering algorithm which gives sufficiently good estimation results for estimation problems of nonlinear systems even in case of high nonlinearity. However, in case of system uncertainty UKF becomes to be inaccurate and diverges by time. In other words, if any change occurs in the process noise covariance, which is known as a priori, filter fails. This study, introduces a novel Adaptive Unscented Kalman Filter (AUKF) algorithm based on the correction of process noise cova...
An efficient recursive edge-aware filter Cigla, Cevahir; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2014-10-01) In this study, an efficient edge-aware filtering methodology, namely permeability filter, that exploits recursive updates among horizontal and vertical axes, is extended for common image filtering applications, including denoising, segmentation and depth upscaling. Besides, an 8-neighbor update methodology, that is applicable for all type of recursive filters, is proposed extending orthogonally generated supporting regions into multi-directional support. This extension provides fine smoothing, especially at...
A Learning Based Statistical Approach for Combining Multiple Measurements in Electrocardiographic Imaging Erenler, Taha; Serinağaoğlu Doğrusöz, Yeşim (2018-01-01) Kalman filter has been applied in literature to in-verse electrocardiography problem as a spatio-temporalmethod. However, there is still an open question of howthe essential parameters in the state-space representationare found without claiming strong assumptions. In thisstudy, we proposed a maximum likelihood (ML) estimationbased method which incorporates multiple body surfacemeasurements to estimate the parameters that are essen-tial to use Kalman filter.Our proposed approach...
An efficient local search method guided by gradient information for discrete coefficient FIR filter design Çiloğlu, Tolga (2002-10-01) A new local search method for the design of linear phase FIR filters with discrete valued coefficients is introduced in this paper. Conventional minimax criterion and normalized peak ripple magnitude (NPRM) are taken as objective functions. The principle is to search along low gradient routes with priority and to direct the search toward steeper sides as improved solutions cease to appear. The characteristics of the objective functions have been explained and used to devise the method. The method is novel i...
