Abstract
Finite-dimensional optimal risk-sensitive filters and smoothers are obtained for discrete-time nonlinear systems by adjusting the standard exponential of a quadratic risk-sensitive cost index to one involving the plant nonlinearity. It is seen that these filters and smoothers are the same as those for a fictitious linear plant with the exponential of squared estimation error as the corresponding risk-sensitive cost index. Such finite-dimensional filters do not exist for nonlinear systems in the case of minimum variance filtering and control.
