Nonlinear Estimation: Methods and Applications with Deterministic Sample Points focusses on a comprehensive treatment of deterministic sample point filters (also called Gaussian filters) and their variants for nonlinear estimation problems, for which no closed-form solution is available in general. Gaussian filters are becoming popular with the designers due to their ease of implementation and... Read more

Dr Paresh Date was born in 1971 in Mumbai, India. He completed his B.E. in Electronics and Telecommunication in 1993 from Pune University, India, his M.Tech. in Control and Instrumentation in 1995 from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (Mumbai), India and his doctoral studies in engineering at Cambridge University in 2001. His studies were funded by the Cambridge Commonwealth Trust (under Cambridge Nehru Fellowship) and the CVCP, UK. He worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Cambridge from 2000 to 2002. He joined Brunel University London in 2002, where he is currently a senior lecturer and Director of Research in the Department of Mathematics. Dr Date's principal research interests include altering and its applications, especially in financial mathematics. He has published more than 50 refereed papers and supervised 10 PhD students to completion as their principal supervisor. His research has been funded by grants from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, UK, from charitable bodies such as the London Mathematical Society, the Royal Society and from the industry. He has held visiting positions at universities in Australia, Canada and India. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications and an Associate Editor for the IMA Journal of Management Mathematics.
