A novel class of dimension reduction methods is combined with a stochastic multi-factor panel regression-based state-space model in order to model the dynamics of yield curves whilst incorporating regression factors. This is achieved via Probabilistic Principal Component Analysis (PPCA) in which new statistically-robust variants are derived also treating missing data. We embed the rank reduced feature extractions into a stochastic representation for state-space models for yield curve dynamics and compare the results to classical multi-factor dynamic Nelson–Siegel state-space models. This leads to important new representations of yield curve models that can be practically important for addressing questions of financial stress testing and monetary policy interventions, which can incorporate efficiently financial big data. We illustrate our results on various financial and macroeconomic datasets from the Euro Zone and international market.

Salmon populations harvested in mixed-stock fisheries can exhibit genotypic, behavioral, and life history diversity that can lead to heterogeneity in population productivity and size. Methods to quantify this heterogeneity among populations in mixed-stock fisheries are not well-established but are critical to assessing harvest–biodiversity trade-offs when setting harvest policies. We developed an integrated, age-structured, state-space model that allows for more complete use of available data and sharing of information than simpler methods. We compared a suite of state-space models of varying structural complexity to simpler regression-based approaches and, as an example case, fitted them to data from 13 Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) populations in the Kuskokwim drainage in western Alaska. We found biological and policy conclusions were largely consistent among state-space models but differed strongly from regression-based approaches. Simulation trials illustrated our state-space models were largely unbiased with respect to spawner–recruit parameters, abundance states, and derived biological reference points, whereas the regression-based approaches showed substantial bias. These findings suggest our state-space model shows promise for informing harvest policy evaluations of harvest–biodiversity trade-offs in mixed-stock salmon fisheries.

In this paper, subspace identification methods are proposed to analyze the differences between On-And Off-Line Linear State Space Models Using Subspace Methods. There are several ways that can estimate the order of the system. For this paper, Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is used to estimate the order of the system. Comparing with the others methods, this method only need a limited number of input and output data for the determination of the system matrices. Two methods of the subspace algorithm are used which is N4SID (Numerical algorithm for Subspace State Space System Identification) and MOESP (Multivariable Output-Error State-Space model identification).

Traditionally, state-space models are fitted to data where there is uncertainty in the observation or measurement of the system. State-space models are partitioned into an underlying system process describing the transitions of the true states of the system over time and the observation process linking the observations of the system to the true states. Open population capture–recapture–recovery data can be modelled in this framework by regarding the system process as the state of each individual observed within the study in terms of being alive or dead, and the observation process the recapture and/or recovery process. The traditional observation error of a state-space model is incorporated via the recapture/recovery probabilities being less than unity. The models can be fitted using a Bayesian data augmentation approach and in standard BUGS packages. Applying this state-space framework to such data permits additional complexities including individual heterogeneity to be fitted to the data at very little additional programming effort. We consider the efficiency of the state-space model fitting approach by considering a random effects model for capture–recapture data relating to dippers and compare different Bayesian model-fitting algorithms within WinBUGS.

State-space models have been successfully employed for model order reduction and control purposes in acoustics in the past. However, due to the cubic complexity of the singular value decomposition, which makes up the core of many subspace system identification (SSID) methods, the construction of large scale state-space models from high-dimensional measurement data has been problematic in the past. Recent advances of numerical linear algebra have brought forth computationally efficient randomized rank-revealing matrix factorizations and it has been shown that these factorizations can be used to enhance SSID methods such as the Eigensystem Realization Algorithm (ERA). In this paper, we demonstrate the applicability of the so-called generalized ERA to acoustical systems and high-dimensional input data by means of an example. Furthermore, we introduce a new efficient method of forced response computation that relies on a state-space model in quasi-diagonal form. Numerical experiments reveal that our proposed method is more efficient than previous state-space methods and can even outperform frequency domain convolutions in certain scenarios.

AbstractIn this survey we consider two fractional-order discrete state-space models of linear systems. In both cases the crucial elements are the fundamental matrices. The difference between them is analyzed. A fundamental condition for the first state-space model is given. The investigations are illustrated by the numerical examples.

We develop time‐domain state‐space models for lossless layered media which are described by the wave equation and boundary conditions. We develop state‐space models for two cases: (1) source and sensor at the surface, and (2) source and sensor in the first layer. Our models are for nonequal one‐way traveltimes; hence, they are more general than most existing models of layered media which are usually for layers of equal one‐way traveltimes. A notable exception to this is the work of Wuenschel (1960); however, most of the useful results even in his paper are developed only for the uniform traveltime case. Our state‐space model treat all of the equations that describe a layered‐media system together in the time domain. Earlier approaches (e.g., Wuenschel, 1960; Robinson, 1968) recursively connect adjacent layers by means of frequency‐domain relationships. We refer to our state equations as “causal functional equations.” They actually represent a new class of equations. Why are we interested in a different class of models for what appears to be a well‐studied system? As is well known, there is a vast literature associated with systems which are described by time‐domain state‐space models. Most recent results in estimation and identification theories, for example, require a state‐space model. These time‐domain techniques have proven very beneficial outside of the geophysics field and we feel should also be beneficial in the geophysics field. In fact, our ultimate objective is to apply those theories to the layered‐media problem; but, to do so, of course, requires state‐space models—hence, this paper.

In this paper, modal motion of a motorcycle during braking is analyzed to clarify influence of a stabilization control system designed to the modes. A thirteen degree-of-freedom nonlinear state-space model including rider’s motion is linearized around an equilibrium point of quasi-steady state straight running with constant deceleration, and the modal analysis is carried out using the linearized state-space models. Conducting mode separation and performing simulations utilizing the linearized state-space models, the behavior of the modes including capsize, weave, and wobble modes are analyzed. The characteristic of each mode is clarified from relationships among the impulsive responses of simulations and the eigenvectors obtained from eigenanalysis. Furthermore, the influence of a motorcycle stabilization control system to each mode is analyzed from simulation results.

Particle methods, also known as Sequential Monte Carlo, have been ubiquitous for Bayesian inference for state-space models, particulary when dealing with nonlinear non-Gaussian scenarios. However, in many practical situations, the state-space model contains unknown model parameters that need to be estimated simultaneously with the state. In this paper, We discuss a sequential analysis for combined parameter and state estimation. An online learning method is proposed to approach the distribution of the model parameter by tuning a flexible proposal mixture distribution to minimize their Kullback-Leibler divergence. We derive the sequential learning method by using a truncated Dirichlet processes normal mixture and present a general algorithm under a framework of the auxiliary particle filtering. The proposed algorithm is verified in a blind deconvolution problem, which is a typical state-space model with unknown model parameters. Furthermore, in a more challenging application that we call meta-modulation, which is a more complex blind deconvolution problem with sophisticated system evolution equations, the proposed method performs satisfactorily and achieves an exciting result for high efficiency communication.
