At around 12:15 you say, given we know x_{t-1} is exactly that point and we guess that at time t it could not have gone that far and randomly sample x_t at the upper left point that you show. Could we control action information here? Then, in Step 2: Reweighting you say we end up with a set of new point. Are these the new points (assuming they're different from the previous ones) that you sample based on X_{t-1}. Do you take the point X_{t-1} and set the new points around it as these are all the points where the state could have transitioned to?
15:56 oh really? you get arbitrarily close to the true distribution just by spamming points? what happens if you have noisy measurements that screw up your reweighing?
Definitely. That’s a very common usage of time series analysis, though I’m a bit skeptical that people are using particle-based Markov models for those these days.
I understand you arriving at p(Y_t = y, X_t | Y_{1 : t-1)} - (1). I also understand p(Y_t = y | Y_{1 : t-1} - (2) . What I do not understand is how you got the posterior p(X_t | Y_{1 : t-1}) equals (1) divided by (2). Am I missing some probability identity here?
Best explained one ever. Very clear. Thank you very much.
Extremely intuitive explanation...loved it

Extremely wonderful video! Thank you!
so the benefit of particle filter is to simply avoid calculating PDFs?
Super helpful, thank you!

Great explanation!
can an object be a moving price in a time-series?
Definitely. That’s a very common usage of time series analysis, though I’m a bit skeptical that people are using particle-based Markov models for those these days.

that‘s also my question
oh i know, just using this joint distribution formula p(a,b|c)=p(a|c)p(b|a,c)
well explained
Helps!
