Abstract: This paper studies Galerkin approximations applied to the Zakai equation of stochastic filtering. The basic idea of this approach is to project the infinite-dimensional Zakai equation onto some finite-dimensional subspace generated by smooth basis functions; this leads to a finite-dimensional system of stochastic differential equations that can be solved numerically. The contribution of the paper is twofold. On the theoretical side, existing convergence results are extended to filtering models with observations of point-process or mixed type. On the applied side, various issues related to the numerical implementation of the method are considered; in particular, we propose to work with a subspace that is constructed from a basis of Hermite polynomials. The paper closes with a numerical case study.
