What is particle filter algorithm?

The particle filter is a Bayesian filter. This means, estimation is performed using Bayesian theory. Bayesian inference allows for estimating a state by combining a statistical model for a measurement (likelihood) with a prior probability using Bayes' theorem.

Is a particle filter a Kalman?

The Kalman and Particle filters are algorithms that recursively update an estimate of the state and find the innovations driving a stochastic process given a sequence of observations. The Kalman filter accomplishes this goal by linear projections, while the Particle filter does so by a sequential Monte Carlo method.

What is particle or solution filter?

November 2022) Particle filters, or sequential Monte Carlo methods, are a set of Monte Carlo algorithms used to solve filtering problems arising in signal processing and Bayesian statistical inference.
