If you program using values that represent anything in the real world, you have probably at least heard of the Kalman filter. The filter allows you to take multiple value estimates and process them ...

The Kalman filter has become a cornerstone in the design of tracking loops for Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receivers, offering optimal state estimation by combining dynamic models with ...

Numerical basics -- Method of least squares -- Recursive least-quares filtering -- Polynomial Kalman filters -- Kalman filters in a nonpolynomial world -- Continuous polynomial Kalman filter -- ...

It appears that no particular approximate [nonlinear] filter is consistently better than any other, though . . . any nonlinear filter is better than a strictly linear one. 1 The Kalman filter is a ...

This section describes a collection of Kalman filtering and smoothing subroutines for time series analysis; immediately following are three examples using Kalman filtering subroutines. The state space ...

Before too long, we will be relieved of the burden of long-distance driving. Given the desired destination and access to a mapping system, electronic control and navigation algorithms will select the ...

This book discusses mathematical approaches to the best possible way of estimating the state of a general system. Although the book is firmly grounded in mathematical theory, it should not be ...

We’ve probably all had a few conversations with people who hold eccentric scientific ideas, and most of the time they yield nothing more than frustration and perhaps a headache. In [Bertrand Selva]’s ...
