β¦ Synopsis
The sequential estimation of the states of a process described by a set of nonlinear hyperbolic or parabolic partial differential equations subject to both stochastic input disturbances and measurement errors is considered. A functional partial differential equation of Hamilton-Jacobi type is derived for the minimum least square estimate error, which is solved approximately in the region of the optimal estimate by a second-order expansion. The optimal estimate is given as the solution ofan initial value problem. In the linear case the estimator equations represent analogs of the well-known Kalman filter equations for lumped parameter systems. The determination of the state of a process governed by the one-dimensional heat equation from noisy measurements is considered.

## Abstract Nonlinear Differential Algebraic Equations (DAEs) are an important class of models for dynamic processes. To establish models that describe the process behavior in a quantitatvely correct way, often parameters in the model have to be determined from observations or measurements of the p
Stochastic models for the solution of nonlinear partial differential equations are discussed. They consist of a discretized version of these equations and Monte Carlo techniques. The Markov transitions are based on a priori estimates of the solution. To improve the efficiency of stochastic smoothers
