A nested sampling particle filter for nonlinear data assimilation
TLDR
The proposed nested sampling particle filter (NSPF) iteratively builds the posterior distribution by applying a constrained sampling from the prior distribution to obtain particles in high‐likelihood regions of the search space, resulting in a reduction of the number of particles required for an efficient behaviour of particle filters.

Properties of nested sampling
TLDR
It is established that nested sampling has an approximation error that vanishes at the standard Monte Carlo rate and that this error is asymptotically Gaussian, and it is shown that the asymPTotic variance of the nested sampling approximation typically grows linearly with the dimension of the parameter.
