Semi-independent resampling for particle filtering

Among Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods,Sampling Importance Resampling (SIR) algorithms are based on Importance Sampling (IS) and on some resampling-based)rejuvenation algorithm which aims at fighting against weight degeneracy. However %whichever the resampling technique used this mechanism tends to be insufficient when applied to informative or high-dimensional models. In this paper we revisit the rejuvenation mechanism and propose a class of parameterized SIR-based solutions which enable to adjust the tradeoff between computational cost and statistical performances.
