Two tutorials will be presented on August 31 afternoon as follows Tutorial I.Presenter: Professor Olivier Cappé, TELECOM ParisTech & CNRS,
Title: Inside Sequential Monte Carlo Methods The topics will be covered: - What is importance sampling and what are the important design choice in IS?
- What is resampling and is it really useful?
- What is Rao-Blackwellization and mixture Kalman filters?
- What guarantees are there for SMC methods?
- Can SMC methods be used for tasks other than filtering?
Tutorial II. Presenter: Professor J.G. McWhirter and Dr J.A. Foster Title: Polynomial Matrix Decompositions with Applications  The topics will be covered:  - Background scalar and polynomial matrix decompositions
- Elementary polynomial matrix rotations
- Polynomial EigenValue Decomposition (PEVD), Polynomial QR Decomposition (PQR) and Polynomial Singular Value Decompostion (PSVD)
- Convergence and uniqueness of decompositions
- Application examplesÂ
Attending the above tutorials will be subject to the registration. The delegates can register in advance through the registration web-link or on site.
