Particle Filter with Measurement Error
A particle filter with explicit measurement error is a Sequential Monte Carlo algorithm that tracks the hidden state of a nonlinear, non-Gaussian dynamic system while formally modelling noise in the observations. A population of weighted random samples (particles) represents the posterior state distribution at each time step, and an observation likelihood function quantifies how much each particle is consistent with the noisy measurement received.
