Abstract

State estimation of the non-Gaussian systems by the Gaus- sian sum method is treated. The distance-based pruning technique is designed for an approximation of the filtering probability density function given by a weighted sum of Gaussian distributions. The technique measures signif- icance of each term of the sum using the Lissack-Fu dis- tance between the approximate filtering probability den- sity function and the filtering probability density function and prunes the insignificant terms. The paper also pro- poses a thrifty implementation of the developed technique. The distance-based pruning technique provides high ap- proximation quality in comparison with other approxima- tion techniques, moreover it achieves low computational demands as it is illustrated in a numerical example.
