A Variational Formulation of Optimal Nonlinear Estimation
We propose a variational method to solve all three estimation problems for nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems: prediction, filtering, and smoothing. Our new approach is based upon a proper choice of cost function, termed the effective action. We show that this functional of time-histories is the unique statistically well-founded cost function to determine most probable histories within empi...
متن کاملNonequilibrium stationary state of a truncated stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equation: formulation and mean-field approximation.
We investigate the stationary state of a model system evolving according to a modified focusing truncated nonlinear Schrödinger equation used to describe the envelope of Langmuir waves in a plasma. We restrict the system to have a finite number of normal modes each of which is in contact with a Langevin heat bath at temperature T . Arbitrarily large realizations of the field are prevented by re...
متن کاملA semi-discrete scheme for the stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equation
We study the convergence of a semi-discretized version of a numerical scheme for a stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The nonlinear term is a power law and the noise is multiplicative with a Stratonovich product. Our scheme is implicit in the deterministic part of the equation as is usual for conservative equations. We also use an implicit discretization of the noise which is better sui...
متن کاملVariational solutions for the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation
The interaction and propagation of optical pulses in a nonlinear waveguide array is described by the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation i∂zψn = −D(ψn+1 + ψn−1 − 2ψn) − γ|ψn|ψn, (1) whereD is a dispersion (or diffraction) coefficient, and γ is a measure of the nonlinearity. By means of the variational approximation, we study the discrete soliton solutions of this equation. We use a trial fu...
متن کاملA Nonlinear Variational Problem for Image Matching
Minimizing a nonlinear functional is presented as a way of obtaining a planar mapping that matches two similar images. A smoothing term is added to the nonlinear functional to penalize discontinuous and irregular solutions. One option for the smoothing term is a quadratic form generated by a linear differential operator. The functional is then minimized using the Fourier representation of the p...
