Σύνοψη	Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) with missing data extends the standard particle filter to state-space models in which some observations are absent. When an observation is missing at a given time step the update step is simply skipped: particles are propagated forward through the transition model without reweighting, preserving exact Bayesian inference under any missing-data pattern as long as missingness is ignorable (missing at random or missing completely at random).	Bayesian inference with missing data treats unobserved values as unknown parameters and integrates them out of the posterior distribution. Rather than deleting or ad hoc imputing incomplete records, the method jointly models observed and missing data under an explicit missing-data mechanism, producing fully calibrated posterior uncertainty that honestly reflects what the data cannot tell us.
