Abstract

In this paper we consider a hidden discrete time finite state process X whose behavior at the present time t depends on its behavior at the previous k time steps, which is a generalization of the usual hidden finite state Markov chain, in which k equals to one. We consider the case when the range space of our observations is finite. We present filtering equations for certain functionals of the chain and perform related error analysis.
