Solving high-dimensional nonlinear filtering problems using a tensor train decomposition method
share
In this paper, we propose an efficient numerical method to solve high-dimensional nonlinear filtering (NLF) problems. Specifically, we use the tensor train decomposition method to solve the forward Kolmogorov equation (FKE) arising from the NLF problem. Our method consists of offline and online stages. In the offline stage, we use the finite difference method to discretize the partial differential operators involved in the FKE and extract low-dimensional structures in the solution space using the tensor train decomposition method. In addition, we approximate the evolution of the FKE operator using the tensor train decomposition method. In the online stage using the pre-computed low-rank approximation tensors, we can quickly solve the FKE given new observation data. Therefore, we can solve the NLF roblem in a real-time manner. Under some mild assumptions, we provide convergence analysis for the proposed method. Finally, we present numerical results to show the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method in solving high-dimensional NLF problems.
