Osaamistavoitteet (voimassa 01.08.2018-31.07.2020):
The student understands the Bayesian basis of estimation in non‐linear and non‐
Gaussian systems. The student understands the principles behind approximate filters and smoothers,
and is able to use them in practice. Student knows how to estimate parameters online and offline in
non‐linear systems.
Sisältö (voimassa 01.08.2018-31.07.2020):
Statistical modeling and estimation of non‐linear and non‐Gaussian systems. Bayesian
filtering and smoothing theory. Extended Kalman filtering and smoothing, sigma‐point and unscented
filtering and smoothing, sequential Monte Carlo particle filtering and smoothing. Adaptive non‐linear
filtering; ML, MAP, MCMC, and EM estimation of system parameters. Example applications from
navigation, remote surveillance, and time series analysis.
Toteutus, työmuodot ja arvosteluperusteet (voimassa 01.08.2018-31.07.2020):
Final exam, home exercises, and project work.
Tarkennetut arviointiperusteet ja -menetelmät ja tutustuminen arviointiin (koskee tätä kurssikertaa):
The course is evaluated based on final exam, home exercises, and project work. The grade of the course is the maximum of the grades of the examination and project work. You need to pass both the examination and the project work to pass the course. To pass the course, you also need to do at least 1/2 of the home exercises. Furthermore if you do (at least) 3/4 of the exercises, your grade increases by one (1 -> 2, 2 -> 3, 3 -> 4, 4 -> 5).
