Abstract

We introduce three new nonlinear continuous data assimilation algorithms. These models are compared with the linear continuous data assimilation algorithm introduced by Azouani, Olson, and Titi (AOT). As a proof-of-concept for these models, we computationally investigate these algorithms in the context of the 1D Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation. We observe that the nonlinear models experience super-exponential convergence in time, and converge to machine precision significantly faster than the linear AOT algorithm in our tests.
