| contents | The projection filter is one of the approximations to the solution of the optimal filtering problem. It approximates the filtering density by projecting the dynamics of the square-root filtering density onto the tangent space of the square-root parametric density manifold. While the projection filters for exponential and mixture families with continuous measurement processes have been well studied, the continuous-discrete projection filtering algorithm for non-conjugate priors has received less attention.
In this paper, we introduce a simple Riemannian optimization method to be used for the Bayesian update step in the continuous-discrete projection filter for exponential families. Specifically, we show that the Bayesian update can be formulated as an optimization problem of $α$-Rényi divergence, where the corresponding Riemannian gradient can be easily computed. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method via two highly non-Gaussian Bayesian update problems. |
