ekf_smoother: Extended Kalman Smoothing

In bssm: Bayesian Inference of Non-Linear and Non-Gaussian State Space Models

Extended Kalman Smoothing

Description

Function ekf_smoother runs the (iterated) extended Kalman smoother for the given non-linear Gaussian model of class ssm_nlg, and returns the smoothed estimates of the states and the corresponding variances. Function ekf_fast_smoother computes only smoothed estimates of the states.

Usage

ekf_smoother(model, iekf_iter = 0)

ekf_fast_smoother(model, iekf_iter = 0)

Arguments

model	Model of class ssm_nlg.
iekf_iter	Non-negative integer. The default zero corresponds to normal EKF, whereas iekf_iter > 0 corresponds to iterated EKF with iekf_iter iterations.

Value

List containing the log-likelihood, smoothed state estimates alphahat, and the corresponding variances Vt and Ptt.

set.seed(1)
mu <- -0.2
rho <- 0.7
sigma_y <- 0.1
sigma_x <- 1
x <- numeric(50)
x[1] <- rnorm(1, mu, sigma_x / sqrt(1 - rho^2))
for(i in 2:length(x)) {
  x[i] <- rnorm(1, mu * (1 - rho) + rho * x[i - 1], sigma_x)
}
y <- rnorm(length(x), exp(x), sigma_y)
