Ensemble Kalman Inversion (EnKI) and Ensemble Square Root Filter (EnSRF) are popular sampling methods for obtaining a target posterior distribution. They can be seem as one step (the analysis step) in the data assimilation method Ensemble Kalman Filter. Despite their popularity, they are, however, not unbiased when the forward map is nonlinear. Important Sampling (IS), on the other hand, obtains the unbiased sampling at the expense of large variance of weights, leading to slow convergence of high moments. We propose WEnKI and WEnSRF, the weight

We present a novel algorithm based on the ensemble Kalman filter to solve inverse problems involving multiscale elliptic partial differential equations. Our method is based on numerical homogenization and finite element discretization and allows to r
ecover a highly oscillatory tensor from measurements of the multiscale solution in a computationally inexpensive manner. The properties of the approximate solution are analysed with respect to the multiscale and discretization parameters, and a convergence result is shown to hold. A reinterpretation of the solution from a Bayesian perspective is provided, and convergence of the approximate conditional posterior distribution is proved with respect to the Wasserstein distance. A numerical experiment validates our methodology, with a particular emphasis on modelling error and computational cost.
Several numerical tools designed to overcome the challenges of smoothing in a nonlinear and non-Gaussian setting are investigated for a class of particle smoothers. The considered family of smoothers is induced by the class of linear ensemble transfo
rm filters which contains classical filters such as the stochastic ensemble Kalman filter, the ensemble square root filter and the recently introduced nonlinear ensemble transform filter. Further the ensemble transform particle smoother is introduced and particularly highlighted as it is consistent in the particle limit and does not require assumptions with respect to the family of the posterior distribution. The linear update pattern of the considered class of linear ensemble transform smoothers allows one to implement important supplementary techniques such as adaptive spread corrections, hybrid formulations, and localization in order to facilitate their application to complex estimation problems. These additional features are derived and numerically investigated for a sequence of increasingly challenging test problems.
A useful approach to solve inverse problems is to pair the parameter-to-data map with a stochastic dynamical system for the parameter, and then employ techniques from filtering to estimate the parameter given the data. Three classical approaches to f
iltering of nonlinear systems are the extended, ensemble and unscented Kalman filters. The extended Kalman inversion (ExKI) is impractical when the forward map is not readily differentiable and given as a black box, and also for high dimensional parameter spaces because of the need to propagate large covariance matrices. Ensemble Kalman inversion (EKI) has emerged as a useful tool which overcomes both of these issues: it is derivative free and works with a low-rank covariance approximation formed from the ensemble. In this paper, we demonstrate that unscented Kalman methods also provide an effective tool for derivative-free inversion in the setting of black-box forward models, introducing unscented Kalman inversion (UKI). Theoretical analysis is provided for linear inverse problems, and a smoothing property of the data mis-fit under the unscented transform is explained. We provide numerical experiments, including various applications: learning subsurface flow permeability parameters; learning the structure damage field; learning the Navier-Stokes initial condition; and learning subgrid-scale parameters in a general circulation model. The theory and experiments show that the UKI outperforms the EKI on parameter learning problems with moderate numbers of parameters and outperforms the ExKI on problems where the forward model is not readily differentiable, or where the derivative is very sensitive. In particular, UKI based methods are of particular value for parameter estimation problems in which the number of parameters is moderate but the forward model is expensive and provided as a black box which is impractical to differentiate.
In this work we marry multi-index Monte Carlo with ensemble Kalman filtering (EnKF) to produce the multi-index EnKF method (MIEnKF). The MIEnKF method is based on independent samples of four-coupled EnKF estimators on a multi-index hierarchy of resol
ution levels, and it may be viewed as an extension of the multilevel EnKF (MLEnKF) method developed by the same authors in 2020. Multi-index here refers to a two-index method, consisting of a hierarchy of EnKF estimators that are coupled in two degrees of freedom: time discretization and ensemble size. Under certain assumptions, the MIEnKF method is proven to be more tractable than EnKF and MLEnKF, and this is also verified in numerical examples.
Ensemble Kalman Sampler (EKS) is a method to find approximately $i.i.d.$ samples from a target distribution. As of today, why the algorithm works and how it converges is mostly unknown. The continuous version of the algorithm is a set of coupled stoc
hastic differential equations (SDEs). In this paper, we prove the wellposedness of the SDE system, justify its mean-field limit is a Fokker-Planck equation, whose long time equilibrium is the target distribution. We further demonstrate that the convergence rate is near-optimal ($J^{-1/2}$, with $J$ being the number of particles). These results, combined with the in-time convergence of the Fokker-Planck equation to its equilibrium, justify the validity of EKS, and provide the convergence rate as a sampling method.
