Long-Time Stability and Accuracy of the Ensemble Kalman--Bucy Filter for Fully Observed Processes and Small Measurement Noise

Abstract: Abstract. The ensemble Kalman filter has become a popular data assimilation technique in the geosciences.However, little is known theoretically about its long term stability and accuracy. In this paper, we investigate the behavior of an ensemble Kalman-Bucy filter applied to continuous-time filtering problems. We derive mean field limiting equations as the ensemble size goes to infinity as well as uniform-in-time accuracy and stability results for finite ensemble sizes. The later results require that the proce… Show more

“…If ESS n (1) > J thresh , then then we can simply set φ n = 1 as no further tempering is thus required. Once the tempering parameter φ n has been computed via (23), normalised weights (20) can be computed. Since some of these can be very low, resampling with replacement according to these weights is then required to discard particles associated with those low weights.…”

“…There also exists a second-order accurate ETPF [23], which however does not satisfy T * ij ≥ 0. The main difference between resampling based on optimal transport and monomial resampling is that the former one is optimal in the sense of the Monge-Kantorovitch problem, while the latter one is non-optimal in that sense.…”

“…For the linear Gaussian setting, it is shown that (i) the empirical distribution converges to the mean-field limit for any finite time; (ii) and even for a finite number of particles, the long term error converges to zero [25]. The convergence and long term stability results are shown for the nonlinear setting as well, where it is assumed that drift function is Lipschitz and the system is fully observed with small measurement noise [5].…”
