Abstract
We introduce an estimate for the likelihood of hidden Markov models (HMMs) using sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) approximations of the generalized two-filter smoothing decomposition (Briers et al., 2010). This estimate is unbiased and a central limit theorem (CLT) is established. The new estimate is also investigated from a numerical perspective.
