We introduce a new sequential methodology to calibrate the fixed parameters and track the stochastic dynamical variables of a state-space system.

In particular, we explore the use of deterministic sampling techniques for Gaussian approximation in the first layer of the algorithm, instead of the Monte Carlo methods employed in the original procedure. The resulting scheme reduces the computational cost and so makes the algorithms potentially better-suited for high-dimensional state and parameter spaces.
