A global stochastic optimization particle filter algorithm
用于全局随机优化的粒子滤波算法
Summary We introduce a new online algorithm for expected loglikelihood maximization in situations where the objective function is multimodal or has saddle points. The key element underpinning the algorithm is a probability distribution that concentrates on the target parameter value as the sample size increases and can be efficiently estimated by means of a standard particle filter algorithm. This distribution depends on a learning rate, such that the faster the learning…
