In this paper, we consider chaotic communication using nonlinear filtering techniques. The main contribution of the paper is proposing a novel antipodal chaotic communication scheme, which is implemented with both the Extended Kalman Filter and the Unscented Kalman Filter. Two different previously proposed Extended Kalman Filter based chaotic schemes are also revisited and implemented using the...

Despite recent interest in continuous prediction of dimensional emotions, the dynamical aspect of emotions has received less attention in automated systems. This paper investigates how emotion change can be effectively incorporated to improve continuous prediction of arousal and valence from speech. Significant correlations were found between emotion ratings and their dynamics during investigat...

Kalman filtering is a method for estimating state variables of a dynamic systems recursively from noise-contaminated measurements. For systems with nonlinear dynamics, a natural extension of the Linear Kalman Filter (LKF), called Extended Kalman filter (EKF) is used. The Kalman filter represents one of the most popular estimation techniques for integrating signals from navigation systems, like ...

One method to account for parameters errors in the Kalman filter is to consider their effect in the so-called Schmidt-Kalman filter. This work addresses issues that arise when implementing a consider Kalman filter as a real-time, recursive algorithm. A favorite implementation of the Kalman filter as an onboard navigation subsystem is the UDU formulation. A new way to implement a UDU consider fi...

In 1960 Rudolph E. Kalman published his now famous article describing a recursive solution to the discrete-data linear filtering problem (Kalman, “A new approach to linear filtering and prediction problems,” Transactions of the ASME—Journal of Basic Engineering, 82 (D), 35–45, 1960). Since that time, due in large part to advances in digital computing, the Kalman filter has been the subject of e...

The Kalman Filter (KF) is a powerful tool in the analysis of the evolution of a dynamical model in time. The filter provides with a flexible manner to obtain recursive estimation of the parameters, which are optimal in the mean square error sense. The properties of KF along with the simplicity of the derived equations make it valuable in the analysis of signals. In this chapter an overview of t...

Recently, the range of available radio frequency identification (RFID) tags has been widened to include smart RFID tags which can monitor their varying surroundings. One of the most important factors for better performance of smart RFID system is accurate measurement from various sensors. In the multi-sensing environment, some noisy signals are obtained because of the changing surroundings. We ...

As a result of the lack of the knowledge with regard to the statistical properties of the dynamic models and operational observations, as well as the computational burden related to the high dimensionality of the realistic data assimilation problems especially those complex nonlinear filtering problems, the ensemble Kalman filter scheme has been paid much more attention in recent years and has ...
