0robKalman-package: robKalman - routines for robust Kalman filtering

In robKalman: Robust Kalman Filtering

Description

robKalman provides routines for robust Kalman filtering. Currently, the ACM-filter and the rLS-Filter are provided.

Setup

We work in the setup of the time-invariant, linear, Gaussian state space model (ti-l-G-SSM) with p dimensional states x_t and q dimensional observations y_t, with initial condition

x_0 ~ N_p(a,S),

state equation

x_t = F x_{t-1} + v_t, v_t ~ N_p(0,Q), t>=1,

observation equation

y_t = Z x_t + e_t, e_t ~ N_q(0,V), t>=1,

and where all random variable x_0, v_t, e_t are independent.

Start-up-Banner

You may suppress the start-up banner/message completely by setting options("StartupBanner"="off") somewhere before loading this package by library or require in your R-code / R-session.

If option "StartupBanner" is not defined (default) or setting options("StartupBanner"=NULL) or options("StartupBanner"="complete") the complete start-up banner is displayed.

For any other value of option "StartupBanner" (i.e., not in c(NULL,"off","complete")) only the version information is displayed.

The same can be achieved by wrapping the library or require call into either suppressStartupMessages() or onlytypeStartupMessages(.,atypes="version").

As for general packageStartupMessage's, you may also suppress all the start-up banner by wrapping the library or require call into suppressPackageStartupMessages() from startupmsg-version 0.5 on.
