Kalman Filter with Measurement Error

The Kalman filter with measurement error is a recursive Bayesian state-space algorithm that estimates the true hidden state of a dynamic system from noisy observations. It explicitly separates process noise (system dynamics uncertainty) from measurement noise (observation uncertainty), propagating both sources of error through a two-step predict-update cycle to yield optimal filtered state estimates and their associated uncertainty.
