In the second edition, the authors have made numerous corrections, updating every chapter, adding two new subsections devoted to the Kalman filter under wrong initial conditions, as well as a new chapter devoted to asymptotically optimal filtering under diffusion approximation. The theory of martingales presented in the book has an independent interest in connection with problems from financial mathematics. The book is not only addressed to mathematicians but should also serve the interests of other scientists who apply probabilistic and statistical methods in their work. The required mathematical background is presented in the first volume: the theory of martingales, stochastic differential equations, the absolute continuity of probability measures for diffusion and Ito processes, elements of stochastic calculus for counting processes.
Model and analyze systems with random signals.The subject of these two volumes is non-linear filtering (prediction and smoothing) theory and its application to the problem of optimal estimation, control with incomplete data, information theory, and sequential testing of hypothesis. Understand the description and behavior of random processes. Bayesian Estimation – MMSE criteria, estimation and Gaussian random vectors, linear least squares estimation.ĬOURSE OBJECTIVES: When a student completes this course, s/he should be able to:. Gaussian Processes – jointly Gaussian random variables, covariance matrices, filtered processes, power spectral density. Finite State Markov chains – first passage time analysis, steady-state analysis. Poisson Process – memoryless properties, alternative definitions, combining and splitting. Limit theorems – laws of large numbers, central limit theorems. Probability review: probability spaces, axioms of probability, conditional probabilities, independence, random variables, expectation, conditional expectation, inequalities. PREREQUISITES BY COURSES: One course in probability. The basics of estimation and filtering of random processes will also be covered. We then will study a number of basic random processes including Poisson Processes, Markov Chains and Gaussian Processes. We will begin with a thorough review of basic probability theory including probability spaces, random variables, probabilistic inequalities, and laws of large numbers. This course will provide an introduction to mathematical probability and random process with a focus on techniques that are useful in studying communication and control systems as well as in many other domains.
