Introduces the Kalman filter as a method that can solve problems related to estimating the hidden internal state of a dynamic system. Develops the background theoretical topics in state-space models and stochastic systems. Presents the steps of the linear Kalman filter and shows how to implement these steps in Octave code and how to evaluate the filter’s output.
