Added a Mac OS X GLCD MEX file. This means that the LCD-based Gaussian sampling technique (GaussianSamplingLCD) and the estimators using it (S2KF, S2RUF, and PGF) now also work out of the box on Mac OS X. The dimension of a new system state is now set in Filter.setState before the code of a subclass is executed.

Nonlinear Estimation Toolbox 2.0 released!

  • 5: The dimension in which we find McConaughey come the bookcase sequence. If you can fathom it, step outside of the Fourth Dimension, separating further from the viewpoint of endless.
  • At PowerMax, we sell new and used Macs. Our used Macs often come with previous versions of Mac OS X, and our customers sometimes would like to know what the differences are between different versions. The following article is a synopsis of each major OS X version since OS X 10.4 Tiger.

This is a major toolbox release for cleaning up its API (more consistent method naming and removal of rather unnecessaryfunctionalities) to allow for a better API understanding and better implementation of new features. This release alsoincludes new estimators.

Updated Getting Started to reflect all API changes.

Also improved documentation for Estimators and Probability Distributions.

  • Filters now only handle the case of a single measurement. For example, Kalman filters now only accept a measurement vector, not a matrix of multiple measurements. However, processing multiple measurements can still be done by stacking measurements to a vector.

  • Measurement models can now only generate a single measurement with the simulate() method.

  • Likelihood-based filters now accept any type of measurement data, not only real-valued measurement vectors as it is the case for Kalman filters. That is, you can pass, for example, a cell array of data that is required by the likelihood function.

  • Various class methods are now sealed to prevent unintended overwriting.

  • Added new subfolders for a better structuring toolbox files. You may have to update your MATLAB PATH accordingly.

  • Renamed getPointEstimate() to getStateMeanAndCov().

  • In addition to getPointEstimate(), getStateMeanAndCov() now also returns the square root of the system state covariance matrix (the lower Cholesky decomposition) analogous to the getMeanAndCov() methods of probability distributions.

  • Added setStateMeanAndCov() method for fastly setting the system state without creating a temporary Gaussian distribution, e.g., in order to assign the Gaussian state estimate of a filter to another one. Note that this method does not perform input validation like setState()!

    • Users can now specify custom state estimate post processing via the {set,get}PredictionPostProcessing() and {set,get}setUpdatePostProcessing() methods, e.g., to implement constrained state estimation. The set post processing methods are then executed after each state prediction and measurement update, respectively.

  • Added several recursive update filter (RUF) variants

    • ERUF: extended recursive update filter (the originally proposed RUF).

    • CRUF: the fifth-degree cubature recursive update filter.

    • GHRUF: the Gauss-Hermite recursive update filter.

    • RURUF: the randomized unscented recursive update filter.

    • S2RUF: the smart sampling recursive update filter.

    • URUF: the unscented recursive update filter.

    • Dropped the analytic moment computation models used by Kalman filters and moved the analytic moment computation for the linear cases directly into LinearMeasurementModel and LinearSystemModel by introducing the getAnalyticMoments() methods.

    • Users can now specify a custom convergence check via the {set,get}ConvergenceCheck() methods, e.g., based on the Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD) using the new Utils.getGaussianKLD() method.

    • Added getNumIterations().

    • Renamed setMeasValidationThreshold() to setMeasGatingThreshold().

    • Renamed getMeasValidationThreshold() to getMeasGatingThreshold().

    • Removed getLastUpdateData().

    • Removed the now obsolete AnalyticKF filter.

    • The implementation of a sample-based Kalman filter now handles the special case of equally weighted samples efficiently. That is, there is no need for a specialized implementation, e.g., for the S2KF or the UKF with equally weighted samples. This also holds for the new sample-based recursive update filters.

      • Renamed setNumIterations() to setNumSamplesFactors.

      • Renamed getNumIterations() to getNumSamplesFactors.

      • The used LCD-based Gaussian sampling technique can now be configured completely independently for state prediction and measurement update.

      • Added getNumSamplesConfigPrediction().

      • Added getNumSamplesConfigUpdate().

      • Renamed setNumSamplesByFactor() to setNumSamplesByFactors().

      • Removed asymmetric LCD-based sampling mode including the setSymmetricMode() method.

      • Renamed setSampleScaling() to setSampleScalings().

      • Renamed getSampleScaling() to getSampleScalings().

    • Changed default name of SIRPF from 'SIR-PF' to 'SIRPF'.

    • Changed default name of ASIRPF from 'Auxiliary SIR-PF' to 'ASIRPF'.

    • Merged the PF interface into the SIRPF.

    • The used LCD-based Gaussian sampling technique can now be configured completely independently for state prediction and measurement update.

    • Added getNumSamplesConfigPrediction().

    • Added getNumSamplesConfigUpdate().

    • Renamed setNumSamplesByFactor() to setNumSamplesByFactors().

    • Renamed getLastUpdateData() to getNumProgSteps().

  • All probability distributions now have a set() method. That is, a distribution can be modified after its creation.

  • All default constructors now return an uninitialized distribution.

  • Renamed getDimension() to getDim().

  • Renamed getMeanAndCovariance() to getMeanAndCov().

  • Removed the JointDistribution.

    • Added check for invalid covariance matrix when trying to compute its square root in getMeanAndCov().

  • The getStdNormalSamples() and getSamples() methods of all Gaussian sampling techniques now return a single scalar weight in case of equally weighted samples in order to efficiently handle the computation of sample-based moments, e.g., means or covariance matrices in Kalman filtering.

    • Now uses a default number of 1,000 particles instead of only 100.

    • Added getSymmetricMode().

    • Added getNumSamplesConfig().

    • Removed online computation mode including the setOnlineMode() method.

    • Renamed getPointEstimates() to getStatesMeanAndCov().

    • In addition to getPointEstimates(), getStatesMeanAndCov() now also returns the square roots of the system state covariance matrices (the lower Cholesky decomposition) analogous to the Filter's getStateMeanAndCov() method.

    • Added setStatesMeanAndCov() method for fastly setting the system state of all filters without creating a temporary Gaussian distribution, e.g., in order to assign the Gaussian state estimate of a filter to another one. Note that this method does not perform input validation like setStates()!

    • Utils.getMeanAndCov() now handles the case of a single scalar weight in case of equally weighted samples (in order to smoothly work with the changed weights of the Gaussian sampling techniques).

    • Utils.kalmanUpdate() now additionally returns the squared Mahalanobis distance of the measurement vector.

    • Added Utils.getGMMeanAndCov() for computing mean and covariance matrix of a Gaussian mixture distribution.

    • Added Utils.getGaussianKLD() for computing the Gaussian Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD).
