Learning outcomes
This course presents the methods to describe state information of a stochastic system and methods to update this information based on uncertain measurement data. Static and dynamic (both discrete and continuous time) systems. Student is capable of (grade (3/5) 1. To form the state estimate and estimate uncertainty for a system described with linear Gaussian model based on uncertain/incomplete data about state. 2. To present the principle of updating state information recursively for a Markov process; the principle of Bayes filter. 3. To construct a Kalman filer for linear Gaussian discrete time system. 4. To construct a Kalman filter for continuous time linear-Gaussian system, the state being measured at irregular intervals. 5. To construct dynamic validation algorithm for a linear static base function model (e.g. the calibration curve of a sensor). Grade (1/5): at least four of the goals achieved.
