State Estimation and Control of Conditionally Linear Systems,
Abstract
The filtering problem for a partially observable stochastic system, with linear in observable states dynamics and non-Gaussian initial conditions is studied here. It is shown that the conditional expected value of the unobservable states, given the past observations, can be expressed in terms of a finite dimensional set of statistics. This result, which generalizes the conditionally Gaussian filter is used to derive a separation principle for a linear-quadratic control problem. (Author)
