HMMs and SSMs (Linear Gaussian) State space models are the continuous state analogue of hidden Markov models. s 1 s 2 s 3 • • • s T z 1 z 2 z 3 • • • z T ⇔ x 1 x 2 x 3 x T x 1 x 2 x 3 x T ◮ A continuous vector state is a very powerful representation. For an HMM to communicate N bits of information about the past, it needs 2 N states! But a real-valued state vector can store an arbitrary number of bits in principle. s 1 s 2 s 3 • • • s T x 1 x 2 x 3 x T ◮ Linear-Gaussian output/dynamics are very weak. The types of dynamics linear SSMs can capture is very limited. HMMs can in principle represent arbitrary stochastic dynamics and output mappings.

Learning (online gradient) Time series data must often be processed in real-time, and we may want to update parameters online as observations arrive. We can do so by updating a local version of the likelihood based on the Kalman filter estimates. Consider the log likelihood contributed by each data point ( ℓ t ): � T � T ln p ( x t | x 1 , . . . , x t − 1 ) = ℓ = ℓ t t = 1 t = 1 Then, ℓ t = − D 2 ln 2 π − 1 2 ln | Σ | − 1 z t − 1 ) T Σ − 1 ( x t − C ˆ z t − 1 2 ( x t − C ˆ ) t t where D is dimension of x , and: z t − 1 z t − 1 ˆ = A ˆ t t − 1 C T + R Σ = C ˆ V t − 1 t t − 1 A T + Q V t − 1 ˆ = A ˆ V t − 1 t We differentiate ℓ t to obtain gradient rules for A , C , Q , R . The size of the gradient step (learning rate) reflects our expectation about nonstationarity.
