  • Abstract
    The Kalman filter is a very efficient optimal filter, however it has the precondition that the noises of the process and of the measurement are Gaussian. The authors introduce `the general distribution filter´ which is an optimal filter that can be used even where the distributions are not Gaussian. An efficient practical implementation of the filter is possible where the distributions are discrete and compact or can be approximated as such
