Bayesian parameter inference for partially observed stochastic volterra equations
In this article we consider Bayesian parameter inference for a type of partially observed stochastic Volterra equation (SVE). SVEs are found in many areas such as physics and mathematical finance. In the latte...

Open AccessMulti-index Sequential Monte Carlo Ratio Estimators for Bayesian Inverse problems
We consider the problem of estimating expectations with respect to a target distribution with an unknown normalising constant, and where even the un-normalised target needs to be approximated at finite resolut...

Bayesian parameter inference for partially observed stochastic differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motion
In this paper we consider Bayesian parameter inference for partially observed fractional Brownian motion models. The approach we follow is to time-discretize the hidden process and then to design Markov chain ...

Open AccessA 4D-Var method with flow-dependent background covariances for the shallow-water equations
The 4D-Var method for filtering partially observed nonlinear chaotic dynamical systems consists of finding the maximum a-posteriori (MAP) estimator of the initial condition of the system given observations ove...

Multilevel estimation of normalization constants using ensemble Kalman–Bucy filters
In this article we consider the application of multilevel Monte Carlo, for the estimation of normalizing constants. In particular we will make use of the filtering algorithm, the ensemble Kalman–Bucy filter (E...

Unbiased approximation of posteriors via coupled particle Markov chain Monte Carlo
Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is a powerful methodology for the approximation of posterior distributions. However, the iterative nature of MCMC does not naturally facilitate its use with modern highly parall...

Multilevel particle filters for the non-linear filtering problem in continuous time
In the following article we consider the numerical approximation of the non-linear filter in continuous-time, where the observations and signal follow diffusion processes. Given access to high-frequency, but d...

Multilevel particle filters: normalizing constant estimation
In this article, we introduce two new estimates of the normalizing constant (or marginal likelihood) for partially observed diffusion (POD) processes, with discrete observations. One estimate is biased but non...

Biased Online Parameter Inference for State-Space Models
We consider Bayesian online static parameter estimation for state-space models. This is a very important problem, but is very computationally challenging as the state-of-the art methods that are exact, often h...
