Abstract: We develop a finite-dimensional approximation of the Frobenius-Perron operator using the finite volume method applied to the continuity equation for the evolution of probability. A Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy condition ensures that the approximation satisfies the Markov property, while existing convergence theory for the finite volume method guarantees convergence of the discrete operator to the continuous operator as mesh size tends to zero. Properties of the approximation are demonstrated in a computed example of sequential inference for the state of a low-dimensional mechanical system when observations give rise to multi-modal distributions.
