kalman filter - python implementation

Started by grzegorz g. June 8, 2010
Hi, I try to implement kalman filter (Python 2.6), and I have a problem
with covariance matrix, which in some time start to have crazy values
(going to minus infinity) and in effect my estimations are also crazy. 

For example:

observation:  [[ -0.21369917]
 [  1.76860362]
 [  5.57973197]
 [ 12.32486812]
 [ 20.49270401]
 [ 31.83940345]
 [ 41.51642446]]
X_estimate =  [  0.00000000e+00   1.34490511e+00   4.33627110e+00  
1.26596826e+01
   2.08888784e+01  -3.25942333e+02  -9.21322474e+05]

Code:

from numpy import *
from numpy.matlib import randn
from numpy.linalg import inv,det

from random import *
from numpy.random import *


def predict(x, P, A, Q, B, u):
    x = dot(A,x) + dot(B, u)   
    P = dot(A, dot(P, A.T)) + Q
    return(x,P)

def update(x, P, z, H, R):
    
    Hx = dot(H, x)
    IS = R + dot(H, dot(P, H.T))
    PH = dot(P,H.T)
    K= dot(PH,inv(IS))
    x = x + dot(K, (z-Hx)[0])#by miec skalar, a nie wektor 1 elementowy ...
 
    P = P - dot(K, dot(H, P)) 
    return (x,P)

    #temporary freq. and modulation factor - not important if H= [1 0 0]   
  
    #for n in range(1,n_iter):# dla n = 0 -> omega,alfa=0
    #    omega_list[n]=(teta_list[n+1]-teta_list[n-1])/2
    #    alfa_list[n]=teta_list[n+1]-2*teta_list[n]+teta_list[n-1]
    for n in range(n_iter):
        X[n][0]=teta_list[n]
        #X[n][1]=omega_list[n]
        #X[n][2]=alfa_list[n]
     
    X=array(X)
    A  = array([[1, 1, 0.5], [0, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1]])
    H = array([1, 0, 0])
    B = eye(X.shape[1])
    #print B.shape=(3,3)
    U = zeros((n_iter,X.shape[1])) 
    Q = eye(X.shape[1]) 
    R = eye(X.shape[1])
    P_init  = diag((0.01, 0.01, 0.01))    
    Z=zeros((n_iter,1))
    V = normal(0,1,n_iter)

    for n in range(n_iter):
        Z[n]=dot(H,X[n])+V[n]
         
    return n_iter,X_estimate,X_predict,A,H,Q,B,U,R,P_init,Z 
    
def ccmKalman():

    n_iter,X_estimate,X_predict,A,H,Q,B,U,R,P_estimate,Z=KalmanInit()
    print "observation: ", Z
    
    for n in range(1,n_iter):
        (X_predict[n],P_predict)=predict(X_estimate[n-1],P_estimate, A, Q,
B, U[n-1]) 
        (X_estimate[n],P_estimate)=update(X_predict[n],P_predict, Z[n], H,
R)
        
        
    print "X_estimate = ", X_estimate.T[0]
      

ccmKalman()



Can someone help me, cos I have no idea what's wrong ?









Me not sore sure wht doin'.  Mayb clr with discription of what doing. and consider audience.  Cos no one hep if can't not understands you.

Caldin.

fyi, Python is used a lot in mathematics software these days. Sage uses Python, Numpy is in Python, as well as SciPy, and many more. Many people write scientific software in Python. --Nasser

But its not used much for DSP code. For DSP its usually C, C++ or matlab/octave.

Many people drink too much alcohol and then drive motor vehicles. That still doesn't make it a good idea. Erik -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Erik de Castro Lopo http://www.mega-nerd.com/

Python with numpy and scipy is a good alternative to Scilab. At least there is a real debugger. Peter Nachtwey

The cool kids still use Logo. Or so I'm told... -- Eric Jacobsen Minister of Algorithms Abineau Communications http://www.abineau.com
ok, I see that you (DSP guys) use a matlab/octave and it's more popular (in
this area). However:
1. nobody said why python is so shity in DSP 
2. I don't really care - either you can help me or discuss about your
disapprovement for python somewhere else.

ctrl+c,ctrl+v was a bad idea, so I upload it:

Do you really expect help now?
