Hierarchical Particle Filter/Evidence
Method evidence record

Hierarchical Particle Filter

A hierarchical particle filter extends Sequential Monte Carlo to state-space models with multiple levels of latent variables. Particles are propagated at each level of the hierarchy, allowing the method to track both fine-grained state dynamics and slower-varying hyperparameters simultaneously, yielding calibrated posterior distributions across all levels of the model.
