KalmanFilter

class pykalman.KalmanFilter(transition_matrices=None, observation_matrices=None, transition_covariance=None, observation_covariance=None, transition_offsets=None, observation_offsets=None, initial_state_mean=None, initial_state_covariance=None, random_state=None, em_vars=['transition_covariance', 'observation_covariance', 'initial_state_mean', 'initial_state_covariance'], n_dim_state=None, n_dim_obs=None)

Implements the Kalman Filter, Kalman Smoother, and EM algorithm.

This class implements the Kalman Filter, Kalman Smoother, and EM Algorithm for a Linear Gaussian model specified by,

x_{t+1} &= A_{t} x_{t} + b_{t} + \text{Normal}(0, Q_{t}) \\ z_{t} &= C_{t} x_{t} + d_{t} + \text{Normal}(0, R_{t})

The Kalman Filter is an algorithm designed to estimate P(x_t | z_{0:t}). As all state transitions and observations are linear with Gaussian distributed noise, these distributions can be represented exactly as Gaussian distributions with mean filtered_state_means[t] and covariances filtered_state_covariances[t].

Similarly, the Kalman Smoother is an algorithm designed to estimate P(x_t | z_{0:T-1}).

The EM algorithm aims to find for \theta = (A, b, C, d, Q, R, \mu_0, \Sigma_0)

\max_{\theta} P(z_{0:T-1}; \theta)

If we define L(x_{0:T-1},\theta) = \log P(z_{0:T-1}, x_{0:T-1}; \theta), then the EM algorithm works by iteratively finding,

P(x_{0:T-1} | z_{0:T-1}, \theta_i)

then by maximizing,

\theta_{i+1} = \arg\max_{\theta} \mathbb{E}_{x_{0:T-1}} [ L(x_{0:T-1}, \theta)| z_{0:T-1}, \theta_i ]

UnscentedKalmanFilter

class pykalman.UnscentedKalmanFilter(transition_functions=None, observation_functions=None, transition_covariance=None, observation_covariance=None, initial_state_mean=None, initial_state_covariance=None, n_dim_state=None, n_dim_obs=None, random_state=None)

Implements the General (aka Augmented) Unscented Kalman Filter governed by the following equations,

Notice that although the input noise to the state transition equation and the observation equation are both normally distributed, any non-linear transformation may be applied afterwards. This allows for greater generality, but at the expense of computational complexity. The complexity of UnscentedKalmanFilter.filter() is O(T(2n+m)^3) where T is the number of time steps, n is the size of the state space, and m is the size of the observation space.

If your noise is simply additive, consider using the AdditiveUnscentedKalmanFilter
