Learning Dynamical Systems From Quantized Observations: A Bayesian Perspective

Identification of dynamical systems from low-resolution quantized observations presents several challenges because of the limited amount of information available in the data and since proper algorithms have to be designed to handle the error due to quantization. In this article, we consider identification of
infinite impulse response
models from quantized outputs. Algorithms both for maximum-likelihood estimation and Bayesian inference are developed. Finally, a particle-filter approach is presented for recursive reconstruction of the latent nonquantized outputs from past quantized observations.
