Abstract

In this paper, we provide a brief introduction to particle filter optimization (PFO). The particle filter (PF) theory has revolutionized probabilistic state filtering for dynamic systems, while the PFO algorithms, which are developed within the PF framework, have not attracted enough attention from the community of optimization. The purpose of this paper is threefold. First, it aims to provide a succinct introduction of the PF theory which forms the theoretical foundation for all PFO algorithms. Second, it reviews PFO algorithms under the umbrella of the PF theory. Lastly, it discusses promising research directions on the interface of PF methods and swarm intelligence techniques.
