Introduction
EKF/UKF is an optimal filtering toolbox for Matlab. Optimal
filtering is a frequently used term for a process, in which the
state of a dynamic system is estimated through noisy and indirect
measurements. This toolbox mainly consists of Kalman filters and
smoothers, which are the most common methods used in stochastic
state-space estimation. The purpose of the toolbox is not to
provide highly optimized software package, but instead to provide a
simple framework for building proof-of-concept implementations of
optimal filters and smoothers to be used in practical
applications.
Most of the code has been written by Simo
Särkkä in the Laboratory of Computational
Engineering.Later Jouni
Hartikainen and Arno
Solin documented and extended it with new filters and
smoothers as well as simulated examples.
The
methods that are discussed in the current documentation
are:
Kalman
filters and smoothers
Extended Kalman filters and
smoothers
Unscented Kalman filters and
smoothers
Gauss-Hermite Kalman filters and
smoothers
Cubature Kalman filters and
smoothers
Interacting Multiple Model (IMM) filters
and smoothers
