Everything about ODE filter

Probabilistic numerical ODE solver

ODE filters are a class of probabilistic numerical methods for solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs) that frame the problem of finding a solution to an initial value problem as a Bayesian inference task. Solutions are modeled as probability distributions that also account for the discretization error introduced through the numerical approximation. This probabilistic treatment provides an computation-aware alternative to classical numerical ODE-solvers, which typically only provide point-wise error bounds. It further enables sampling of joint trajectories from the posterior, as well as quantifying uncertainty about the underlying ODE itself. ODE filters offer a flexible framework for incorporating additional information, such as measurements or conservation laws. Wikipedia →
