Detailed Description

This class acts as a common interface to the different interfaces (see CParticleFilter::TParticleFilterAlgorithm) any bayes::CParticleFilterCapable class can implement: it is the invoker of particle filter algorithms.

The particle filter is executed on a probability density function (PDF) described by a CParticleFilterCapable object, passed in the constructor or alternatively through the CParticleFilter::executeOn method.

For a complete example and further details, see the Particle Filter tutorial.

The basic SIR algorithm (pfStandardProposal) consists of:

Execute a prediction with the given "action".
Update the weights of the particles using the likelihood of the "observation".
Normalize weights.
Perform resampling if the ESS is below the threshold options.BETA.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ TParticleFilterAlgorithm

enum mrpt::bayes::CParticleFilter::TParticleFilterAlgorithm

Defines different types of particle filter algorithms.

The defined SIR implementations are:

pfStandardProposal: Standard proposal distribution + weights according to likelihood function.
pfAuxiliaryPFStandard: An auxiliary PF using the standard proposal distribution.
pfOptimalProposal: Use the optimal proposal distribution (where available!, usually this will perform approximations)
pfAuxiliaryPFOptimal: Use the optimal proposal and a auxiliary particle filter (see paper).

See the theoretical discussion in resampling schemes.

◆ TParticleResamplingAlgorithm

enum mrpt::bayes::CParticleFilter::TParticleResamplingAlgorithm

Defines the different resampling algorithms.

The implemented resampling methods are:

prMultinomial (Default): Uses standard select with replacement (draws M random uniform numbers)
prResidual: The residual or "remainder" method.
prStratified: The stratified resampling, where a uniform sample is drawn for each of M subdivisions of the range (0,1].
prSystematic: A single uniform sample is drawn in the range (0,1/M].

See the theoretical discussion in resampling schemes.
