Kalman filters and other optimal and non-optimal estimation filters in Rust.

# filter-rs - Kalman filters and other optimal and non-optimal estimation filters in Rust.


**filter-rs** is a port of the [filterpy](https://github.com/rlabbe/filterpy) library and aims to provide Kalman filtering and optimal estimation for Rust.

This port is a work in progress and incomplete. To learn more about Kalman filters check out Roger R Labbe Jr.'s 
awesome book [Kalman-and-Bayesian-Filters-in-Python](https://github.com/rlabbe/Kalman-and-Bayesian-Filters-in-Python).

This library will grow as I work through the book myself and the API will most likely evolve and become more rustic, too.
Feedback on the API design is always appreciated, as well as pull requests for missing features. 

Examples
=========

The API is based on `nalgebra` matrices with structural genericity. That means, that the shapes of inputs can 
statically checked and are always correct at runtime.

GH Filter
----------
```
let x0 = 0.0;
let dx0 = 0.0;
let g = 0.2;
let h - 0.2;
let dt = 0.01;

let fgh = GHFilter::new(x0, dx0, g, h, dt);

```

Univariate Kalman Filter
-------------------------

The Kalman filter has to be initialised with sensible values. 
A default filter can be constructed but should not be used.  

```
let mut kf: KalmanFilter<f64, U2, U1, U1> = KalmanFilter::default();

kf.x = Vector2::new(2.0, 0.0);
kf.F = Matrix2::new(
    1.0, 1.0,
    0.0, 1.0,
);
kf.H = Vector2::new(1.0, 0.0).transpose();
kf.P *= 1000.0;
kf.R = Matrix1::new(5.0);
kf.Q = Matrix2::repeat(0.0001);

let mut results = Vec::default();
for t in 0..100 {
    let z = Vector1::new(t as f64);
    kf.update(&z, None, None);
    kf.predict(None, None, None, None);
    results.push(kf.x.clone());
}
```
