Online expectation-maximization type algorithms for parameter estimation in general state space models
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present new online algorithms to estimate static parameters in nonlinear non Gaussian state space models. These algorithms rely on online Expectation-Maximization (EM) type algorithms. Contrary to standard Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods recently proposed in the literature, these algorithms do not degenerate over time.

Online Expectation Maximization based algorithms for inference in hidden Markov models
The Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm is a versatile tool for model parameter estimation in latent data models. When processing large data sets or data stream however, EM becomes intractable since it requires the whole data set to be available at each iteration of the algorithm. In this contribution, a new generic online EM algorithm for model parameter inference in general Hidden Markov ...
متن کاملOn-line Parameter Estimation in General State-Space Models using a Pseudo-Likelihood Approach
State-space models are a very general class of time series capable of modeling dependent observations in a natural and interpretable way. While optimal state estimation can now be routinely performed using SMC (sequential Monte Carlo) methods, on-line static parameter estimation largely remains an unsolved problem. In Andrieu and Doucet [2003] it was proposed to use a pseudo-likelihood approach...
متن کاملOnline State Space Model Parameter Estimation in Synchronous Machines
The purpose of this paper is to present a new approach based on the Least Squares Error method for estimating the unknown parameters of the nonlinear 3rd order synchronous generator model. The proposed method uses the mathematical relationships between the machine parameters and on-line input/output measurements to estimate the parameters of the nonlinear state space model. The field voltage is...
متن کاملSigma-Point Filtering and Smoothing Based Parameter Estimation in Nonlinear Dynamic Systems
We consider approximate maximum likelihood parameter estimation in nonlinear state-space models. We discuss both direct optimization of the likelihood and expectation– maximization (EM). For EM, we also give closed-form expressions for the maximization step in a class of models that are linear in parameters and have additive noise. To obtain approximations to the filtering and smoothing distrib...
متن کاملOn Solving General State-Space Sequential Decision Problems using Inference Algorithms
A recently proposed formulation of the stochastic planning and control problem as one of parameter estimation for suitable artificial statistical models has led to the adoption of inference algorithms for this notoriously hard problem. At the algorithmic level, the focus has been on developing Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithms. For example, Toussaint et al (2006) uses EM with optimal smo...
