Robust Sequential Monte Carlo
Robust Sequential Monte Carlo (Robust SMC) extends standard particle filtering to handle outliers, heavy-tailed noise, and model misspecification in sequential data. By replacing Gaussian likelihood assumptions with heavier-tailed distributions or employing outlier-detection strategies during particle weighting, it maintains accurate state-tracking and parameter estimation even when observations deviate from the assumed model.
