Kalman Filter — Financial State-Space Model

The Kalman filter is a recursive algorithm that estimates financial models with time-varying parameters, hidden factors, and noisy observations inside a dynamic state-space framework. The structural time series treatment was set out by Harvey (1989), with state-space and regime-switching extensions developed by Kim and Nelson (1999); it is widely applied to pairs trading, time-varying beta estimation, and yield-curve modelling.
