Jerk car

This is an example of a 4 dimensional state estimated via a Vanilla Kalman filter and an Information Filter, and writing the estimates and covariances to a CSV file (different for each filter).

This example also shows how straight forward it is to use this package.

Note: this example comes from the second midterm of Dr. Ahmed's ASEN 5044 at CU Boulder.

Example graph

Vanilla Kalman Filter

This plot uses the data from vanilla.csv, so feel free to inspect that.

Note that the estimate is not correct. This is expected in this example.

Information Filter

This plot uses the data from information.csv, so feel free to inspect that.

Square Root Filter

This plot uses the data from sqrt.csv, so feel free to inspect that.
