arXiv:2610.35712v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This work proposes a new Multi-Fidelity Particle Flow Filter (MFPFF) based on a linear control variate framework and multilevel Monte Carlo methods. Conventional particle filters often suffer from weight collapse and particle degeneracy in high-dimensional spaces. Particle flow filters address this by smoothly transporting prior particles toward the posterior distribution, thereby avoiding the need for resampling. This work constructs multi-fidelity particle flow filters by augmenting a small number of expensive high-fidelity particles (full-order model runs) with a large number of inexpensive low-resolution particles (reduced-order surrogates constructed via intrusive Galerkin projection). These surrogates act as control variates to enhance the statistical estimate of the full-order posterior, yielding enhanced analysis accuracy at comparable computational cost. The work focuses on two particle flows based on log homotopy, the stochastic Gromov flow and deterministic Exact flow. Numerical experiments with the Korteweg-De Vries (KdV) and Quasi-Geostrophic (QG) test problems demonstrate that the proposed MFPFF achieves accuracy comparable to high-fidelity simulations while significantly reducing computational expense.
