pydpf.filtering.DiffusionDPF

class pydpf.filtering.DiffusionDPF(SSM: FilteringModel = None, resampling_generator: Generator = <torch._C.Generator object>, alpha: float = -1.0, diffusion_time: float = 2.0, n_steps: int = 16, schedule: Tensor | None = None, jitter: float = 0.0)

Bases: ParticleFilter

Particle filter with diffusion resampling [1].

Parameters:

SSM: FilteringModel

A FilteringModel that represents the SSM (and optionally a proposal model). See the documentation of FilteringModel for more complete information.

resampling_generator: torch.Generator

Generator to track the resampling rng.

alpha: float

The noising strength, determines the size of the forward diffusion coefficient, must be negative. More negative alpha corresponds to a faster forward diffusion.

diffusion_time: float

The maximum time of the forward diffusion. If a schedual is provided then i.e. schedule is not None then this parameter is ignored.

n_steps: int

The number of EM integrator steps to use in total. If a schedule is provided then i.e. schedule is not None then this parameter is ignored.

schedule: (S,) Tensor or None, Default: None

The discrete times at which the EM integrator is evaluated. If schedule is None then the integrator schedule is set to the n_steps + 1 uniformly spaced points in [0, diffusion_time].

jitter: float, Default: 0.

A tolerance parameter to ensure numerical stability if the covariance of the weighted posterior is very small. Must be non-negative.
