This chapter discusses the notion of action-minimizing orbits. In particular, it defines the other two families of invariant sets, the so-called Aubry and Mañé sets. It explains their main dynamical and symplectic properties, comparing them with the results obtained in the preceding chapter for the Mather sets. The relation between these new invariant sets and the Mather sets is described. As a by-product, the chapter introduces the Mañé's potential, Peierls' barrier, and Mañé's critical value. It discusses their properties thoroughly. In particular, it highlights how this critical value is related to the minimal average action and describes these new concepts in the case of the simple pendulum.

The phenomenon of simple harmonic motion is more vigilantly explained using a simple pendulum. The angular motion of a pendulum is linear in nature. But the analysis of the motion along the horizontal direction is non-linear. To estimate this, several algorithms like the Kalman filter, Extended Kalman Filter etc. are adopted. Here in this paper, Particle filter is chosen which is a method to form Monte Carlo approximations to the solutions of Bayesian filtering equations. Sequential importance resampling based Particle filters are used where the filtering distributions are multi-nodal or consist of discrete state components since under these circumstances the Bayesian approximations do not always work well.
