White Noise Theory Of Prediction Filtering And Smoothing

Based on the author’s own research, this book rigorously and systematically develops the theory of Gaussian white noise measures on Hilbert spaces to provide a comprehensive account of nonlinear filtering theory. Covers Markov processes, cylinder and quasi-cylinder probabilities and conditional expectation as well as predictio0n and smoothing and the varied processes used in filtering. Especially useful for electronic engineers and mathematical statisticians for explaining the systematic use of finely additive white noise theory leading to a more simplified and direct presentation.

A unified Bayesian treatment of the state-of-the-art filtering, smoothing, and parameter estimation algorithms for non-linear state space models.

This volume comprises selected papers presented at the 12th Winter School on Stochastic Processes and their Applications, which was held in Siegmundsburg, Germany, in March 2000. The contents include Backward Stochastic Differential Equations; Semilinear PDE and SPDE; Arbitrage Theory; Credit Derivatives and Models for Correlated Defaults; Three In

This book gives a reliable review on structure selection of stochastic dynamic systems using information criteria AIC, BIC, o and stochastic complexity. After theoretical investigations many simulations are estimators, which illustrate both the effectiveness and the limitations of these methods. The reader can gain his or her own experience on the"working" of many methods (associated with different parameter estimators) using the demonstration disk which can be run on most IBM-compatible personal computers. The book will be helpful to anybody interested in applying automated methods of model-structure selection inn control engineering, in time series analysis or in signal processing.

Presenting statistical and stochastic methods for the analysis and design of technological systems in engineering and applied areas, this work documents developments in statistical modelling, identification, estimation and signal processing. The book covers such topics as subspace methods, stochastic realization, state space modelling, and identification and parameter estimation.

A collection of 22 articles based on papers presented at a workshop held at Imperial College, London, April 1989. They concern applications of stochastic analysis--the theory of stochastic integration, martingales and Markov processes--to a variety of applied problems centered around optimization of dynamical systems under uncertainty. Topics covered include characterization and approximation for stochastic system models, problems in stochastic control theory, and various facets of nonlinear filtering theory and system identification.
