Dynamic Sequential Monte Carlo
Dynamic Sequential Monte Carlo (Dynamic SMC) is a Bayesian computational method that maintains and updates a population of weighted samples — particles — as new observations arrive over time. It propagates particles through a dynamic system model, reweights them by how well they match the observed data, and periodically resamples to concentrate effort on high-probability regions, yielding online posterior inference for state-space and time-evolving models.
