    A Monte Carlo particle (MCP) filter is considered for nonlinear non-Gaussian state-space (SS) models. A self-organizing SS (SOSS) is discussed where the unknown parameters of the model are included in the augmented state vector. A version of the simplex Nelder-Mead maximization algorithm is proposed for maximum likelihood estimation calculation in SOSS with MCP filter. Numerical examples are presented for linear and nonlinear Gaussian and non-Gaussian SS, a stochastic volatility model and a threshold autoregressive model.
