LRKF Revisited: The Smart Sampling Kalman Filter (S2KF)
نویسندگان
چکیده
An accurate Linear Regression Kalman Filter (LRKF) for nonlinear systems called Smart Sampling Kalman Filter (S2KF) is introduced. In order to get a better understanding of this new filter, a general introduction to Nonlinear Kalman Filters based on statistical linearization and LRKFs is given. The S2KF is based on a new low-discrepancy Dirac mixture approximation of Gaussian densities. This approximation comprises an arbitrary number of optimally and deterministically placed samples in the relevant regions of the state space, so that the filter resolution can be adapted to either achieve highquality results or to meet computational constraints. The S2KF contains the UKF with equally weighted samples as a special case when using the same amount of samples. With an increasing number of samples, the new filter converges to the (typically unfeasible) exact analytic statistical linearization. Hence, the S2KF can be seen as the ultimate generalization of all LRKFs such as the UKF, sigma-point filters, higher-order variants etc., as it homogeneously covers the state space with a freely chosen number of samples. It is evaluated against state-of-the-art LRKFs by performing nonlinear prediction and extended target tracking.

متن کاملThe Smart Sampling Kalman Filter with Symmetric Samples
Nonlinear Kalman Filters are powerful and widely-used techniques when trying to estimate the hidden state of a stochastic nonlinear dynamic system. In this paper, we extend the Smart Sampling Kalman Filter (S2KF) with a new point symmetric Gaussian sampling scheme. This not only improves the S2KF’s estimation quality, but also reduces the time needed to compute the required optimal Gaussian sam...

In this paper, a six-dimensional (6D) Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) based on novel Linear Regression Kalman Filter (LRKF), called Smart Sampling Kalman Filter (S2KF), is proposed. While the conventional feature based SLAM methods use point features as landmarks, only a few take the advantage of geometric information like corners, edges, and planes. A feature based SLAM method usi...
متن کاملAn Effective Attack-Resilient Kalman Filter-Based Approach for Dynamic State Estimation of Synchronous Machine
Kalman filtering has been widely considered for dynamic state estimation in smart grids. Despite its unique merits, the Kalman Filter (KF)-based dynamic state estimation can be undesirably influenced by cyber adversarial attacks that can potentially be launched against the communication links in the Cyber-Physical System (CPS). To enhance the security of KF-based state estimation, in this paper...
متن کاملNew Adaptive UKF Algorithm to Improve the Accuracy of SLAM
SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) is a fundamental problem when an autonomous mobile robot explores an unknown environment by constructing/updating the environment map and localizing itself in this built map. The all-important problem of SLAM is revisited in this paper and a solution based on Adaptive Unscented Kalman Filter (AUKF) is presented. We will explain the detailed algorithm...
