Book Smoothing  Filtering and Prediction

Download or read book Smoothing Filtering and Prediction written by Garry Einicke and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-02-24 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the classical smoothing, filtering and prediction techniques together with some more recently developed embellishments for improving performance within applications. It aims to present the subject in an accessible way, so that it can serve as a practical guide for undergraduates and newcomers to the field. The material is organised as a ten-lecture course. The foundations are laid in Chapters 1 and 2, which explain minimum-mean-square-error solution construction and asymptotic behaviour. Chapters 3 and 4 introduce continuous-time and discrete-time minimum-variance filtering. Generalisations for missing data, deterministic inputs, correlated noises, direct feedthrough terms, output estimation and equalisation are described. Chapter 5 simplifies the minimum-variance filtering results for steady-state problems. Observability, Riccati equation solution convergence, asymptotic stability and Wiener filter equivalence are discussed. Chapters 6 and 7 cover the subject of continuous-time and discrete-time smoothing. The main fixed-lag, fixed-point and fixed-interval smoother results are derived. It is shown that the minimum-variance fixed-interval smoother attains the best performance. Chapter 8 attends to parameter estimation. As the above-mentioned approaches all rely on knowledge of the underlying model parameters, maximum-likelihood techniques within expectation-maximisation algorithms for joint state and parameter estimation are described. Chapter 9 is concerned with robust techniques that accommodate uncertainties within problem specifications. An extra term within Riccati equations enables designers to trade-off average error and peak error performance. Chapter 10 rounds off the course by applying the afore-mentioned linear techniques to nonlinear estimation problems. It is demonstrated that step-wise linearisations can be used within predictors, filters and smoothers, albeit by forsaking optimal performance guarantees.

Book Virtual Equivalent System Approach for Stability Analysis of Model based Control Systems

Download or read book Virtual Equivalent System Approach for Stability Analysis of Model based Control Systems written by Weicun Zhang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-05 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book puts forward the concept of a virtual equivalent system (VES) based on theoretical analysis and simulation results. The new concept will facilitate the development of a unified framework for analyzing the stability and convergence of self-tuning control (STC) systems, and potentially, of all adaptive control systems. The book then shows that a time-varying STC system can be converted into a time-invariant system using a certain nonlinear compensation signal, which reduces the complexity and difficulty of stability and convergence analysis. In closing, the VES concept and methodology are used to assess the stability of multiple model adaptive control (MMAC) systems and T-S model-based fuzzy control systems.

Book Modeling Discrete Time to Event Data

Download or read book Modeling Discrete Time to Event Data written by Gerhard Tutz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on statistical methods for the analysis of discrete failure times. Failure time analysis is one of the most important fields in statistical research, with applications affecting a wide range of disciplines, in particular, demography, econometrics, epidemiology and clinical research. Although there are a large variety of statistical methods for failure time analysis, many techniques are designed for failure times that are measured on a continuous scale. In empirical studies, however, failure times are often discrete, either because they have been measured in intervals (e.g., quarterly or yearly) or because they have been rounded or grouped. The book covers well-established methods like life-table analysis and discrete hazard regression models, but also introduces state-of-the art techniques for model evaluation, nonparametric estimation and variable selection. Throughout, the methods are illustrated by real life applications, and relationships to survival analysis in continuous time are explained. Each section includes a set of exercises on the respective topics. Various functions and tools for the analysis of discrete survival data are collected in the R package discSurv that accompanies the book.

Book Filtering and Parameter Estimation for Partially Observed Generalized Hawkes Processes

Download or read book Filtering and Parameter Estimation for Partially Observed Generalized Hawkes Processes written by Anca Patricia Vacarescu and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We consider the nonlinear filtering problem for partially observed Generalized Hawkes Processes, which can be applied in the context of portfolio credit risk. The problem belongs to the larger class of hidden Markov models, where the counting process is observed at discrete points in time and the observations are sparse, while the intensity driving process in unobservable. We construct the conditional distribution of the process given the information filtration and we discuss the analytical and numerical properties of the corresponding filters. In particular, we study the sensitivity of the filters with respect to the parameters of the model, and we obtain a monotonicity result with respect to the jump and the volatility terms driving the intensity. Using the scaled process, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the frequency of time observations in terms of the parameters of the model, to ensure a good performance of the filter. We also address the problem of parameter estimation for the Generalized Hawkes Process in the framework of the EM algorithm, and we analyze the effect of the self-exciting feature of our process on the asymptotic and numerical properties of the estimators.
