Documented in bf.dist.gaussian_state_space

#' @title Gaussian State Space Distribution
#'
#' @description Samples from a Gaussian state space model.
#'
#' @param num_steps An integer representing the number of steps.
#' @param transition_matrix A numeric vector, matrix, or array representing the state space transition matrix \eqn{A}.
#' @param covariance_matrix A numeric vector, matrix, or array representing the covariance of the innovation noise \eqn{\epsilon}.  Defaults to `reticulate::py_none()`.
#' @param precision_matrix A numeric vector, matrix, or array representing the precision matrix of the innovation noise \eqn{\epsilon}. Defaults to `reticulate::py_none()`.
#' @param scale_tril A numeric vector, matrix, or array representing the scale matrix of the innovation noise \eqn{\epsilon}. Defaults to `reticulate::py_none()`.
#' @param shape A numeric vector specifying the shape. When `sample=FALSE` (model building), this is used with `.expand(shape)` to set the distribution's batch shape. When `sample=TRUE` (direct sampling), this is used as `sample_shape` to draw a raw JAX array of the given shape.
#' @param event An integer representing the number of batch dimensions to reinterpret as event dimensions (used in model building).
#' @param mask A logical vector, matrix, or array representing an optional boolean array to mask observations. Defaults to `reticulate::py_none()`.
#' @param create_obj A logical value. If `TRUE`, returns the raw BI distribution object instead of creating a sample site. Defaults to `FALSE`.
#' @param validate_args Logical: Whether to validate parameter values.  Defaults to `reticulate::py_none()`.
#' @param sample A logical value that controls the function's behavior. If `TRUE`,
#'   the function will directly draw samples from the distribution. If `FALSE`,
#'   it will create a random variable within a model. Defaults to `FALSE`.
#' @param seed An integer used to set the random seed for reproducibility when
#'   `sample = TRUE`. This argument has no effect when `sample = FALSE`, as
#'   randomness is handled by the model's inference engine. Defaults to 0.
#' @param obs A numeric vector or array of observed values. If provided, the
#'   random variable is conditioned on these values. If `NULL`, the variable is
#'   treated as a latent (unobserved) variable. Defaults to `NULL`.
#' @param name A character string representing the name of the random variable
#'   within a model. This is used to uniquely identify the variable. Defaults to 'x'.
#' @param to_jax Boolean. Indicates whether to return a JAX array or not.
#'
#' @return When `sample=FALSE`:
#'  - When `sample=FALSE`, a BI  Gaussian State Space distribution object (for model building).
#'
#'  - When `sample=TRUE`, a JAX array of samples drawn from the  Gaussian State Space distribution (for direct sampling).
#'
#'  - When `create_obj=TRUE`, the raw BI distribution object (for advanced use cases).
