Requirements for IPython Notebook and Python. github links.\n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 1: The g-h Filter**](01_g-h_filter.html)\n", "\n", "Intuitive introduction to the g-h filter, which is a family of filters that includes the Kalman filter. Not filler - once you understand this chapter you will understand the concepts behind the Kalman filter. \n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 2: The Discrete Bayes Filter**](02_Discrete_Bayes.html)\n", "\n", "Introduces the Discrete Bayes Filter. From this you will learn the probabilistic reasoning that underpins the Kalman filter in an easy to digest form.\n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 3: Least Squares Filter**](03_Least_Squares_Filters.html)\n", "\n", "Introduces the least squares filter in batch and recursive forms. I've not made a start on authoring this yet.\n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 4: Gaussian Probabilities**](04_Gaussians.html)\n", "\n", "Introduces using Gaussians to represent beliefs in the Bayesian sense. Gaussians allow us to implement the algorithms used in the Discrete Bayes Filter to work in continuous domains.\n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 5: One Dimensional Kalman Filters**](05_Kalman_Filters.html)\n", "\n", "Implements a Kalman filter by modifying the Discrete Bayesian Filter to use Gaussians. This is a full featured Kalman filter, albeit only useful for 1D problems. \n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 6: Multivariate Kalman Filter**](/06_Multivariate_Kalman_Filters.html)\n", "\n", "We extend the Kalman filter developed in the previous chapter to the full, generalized filter. \n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 7: Kalman Filter Math**](07_Kalman_Filter_Math.html)\n", "\n", "We gotten about as far as we can without forming a strong mathematical foundation. This chapter is optional, especially the first time, but if you intend to write robust, numerically stable filters, or to read the literature, you will need to know this. \n", "\n", "*This still needs a lot of work. *\n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 8: Designing Kalman Filters**](08_Designing_Kalman_Filters.html)\n", "\n", "Building on material in Chapter 6, walks you through the design of several Kalman filters.

Here I introduce the problems that nonlinear systems pose to the filter, and briefly discuss the various algorithms that we will be learning in subsequent chapters which work with nonlinear systems.\n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 10: Unscented Kalman Filters**](10_Unscented_Kalman_Filter.html)\n", "\n", "Unscented Kalman filters (UKF) are a recent development in Kalman filter theory.

However, they work well for post-processing data. We discuss some common approaches.\n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 14: Adaptive Filtering**](14_Adaptive_Filtering.html)\n", " \n", "Kalman filters assume a single process model, but manuevering targets typically need to be described by several different process models. Adaptive filtering uses several techniques to allow the Kalman filter to adapt to the changing behavior of the target.\n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 15: H-Infinity Filters**](15_HInfinity_Filters.html)\n", " \n", "Describes the $H_\\infty$ filter. \n", "\n", "*I have code that implements the filter, but no supporting text yet.*\n", "\n", "\n", "[**Chapter 16: Ensemble Kalman Filters**](16_Ensemble_Kalman_Filters.html)\n", "\n", "Discusses the ensemble Kalman Filter, which uses a Monte Carlo approach to deal with very large Kalman filter states in nonlinear systems.\n", "\n", "\n", "[**Appendix: Installation, Python, NumPy, and filterpy**](Appendix_A_Installation.html)\n", "\n", "Brief introduction of Python and how it is used in this book.
