Stochastic Average Consensus Filter for Distributed HMM Filtering: Almost Sure Convergence
In this paper, we study almost sure convergence of a dynamic average consensus algorithm which allows distributed computation of the product of n time-varying conditional probability density functions. These density functions (often called as “belief functions”) correspond to the conditional probability of observations given the state of an underlying Markov chain, which is observed by n differ...
متن کاملSaturated Particle Filter: Almost sure convergence and improved resampling
Nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems are widely used to model physical processes. In many practical applications, the state variables are defined on a compact set of the state space, i.e., they are bounded or saturated. To estimate the states of systems with saturated variables, the Saturated Particle Filter (SPF) has recently been developed. This filter exploits the structure of the saturate...
متن کاملAlmost Sure Convergence to Zero in Stochastic Growth Models
This paper shows that in stochastic one-sector growth models, if the production function does not satisfy the Inada condition at zero, any feasible path converges to zero with probability one provided that the shocks are sufficiently volatile. This result seems significant since, as we argue, the Inada condition at zero is difficult to justify on economic grounds. Our convergence result is exte...
متن کاملAlmost Sure Convergence Rates for the Estimation of a Covariance Operator for Negatively Associated Samples
Let {Xn, n >= 1} be a strictly stationary sequence of negatively associated random variables, with common continuous and bounded distribution function F. In this paper, we consider the estimation of the two-dimensional distribution function of (X1,Xk+1) based on histogram type estimators as well as the estimation of the covariance function of the limit empirical process induced by the se...
متن کاملRates of Convergence for Distributed Average Consensus with Probabilistic Quantization
Probabilistically quantized distributed averaging (PQDA) is a fully decentralized algorithm for performing average consensus in a network with finite-rate links. At each iteration, nodes exchange quantized messages with their immediate neighbors. Then each node locally computes a weighted average of the messages it received, quantizes this new value using a randomized quantization scheme, and t...
