contents Nonlinear filtering with correlated noise leads to a Duncan-Mortensen-Zakai (DMZ) equation in the form of a stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE). Unlike the independent noise case, the presence of correlation prevents the classical invertible transformation that reduces the DMZ equation to a deterministic partial differential equation, requiring a direct numerical treatment of the SPDE. This paper develops a tensor train (TT) based framework for solving medium- to high-dimensional DMZ equations with correlated noise. Spatial discretization transforms the SPDE into a high-dimensional stochastic differential system, which is efficiently compressed using TT approximation. A semi-implicit Milstein scheme is employed for temporal integration to ensure stability and accuracy. Under suitable regularity assumptions, we establish a convergence analysis of the proposed method. In particular, the spatial error is controlled by both the mesh size and the prescribed TT approximation accuracy. In the temporal direction, the convergence is proved by estimating stochastic integrals involving drifted observations, without invoking a change-of-measure argument. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the proposed method achieves stable and accurate performance for cubic sensor problems. In challenging multi-modal settings, where particle filter and extended Kalman filter deteriorate, the proposed method maintains accuracy and effectively captures the posterior distribution.
