KK... JK... OK : /: A Bayesian Approach To Kalman Filtering

KK... JK... OK : /: A Bayesian Approach To Kalman Filtering: "INTRODUCTION
Ripped straight from Wikipedia...
The Kalman filter is an algorithm, commonly used since the 1960s for improving vehicle navigation (among other applications, although aerospace is typical), that yields an optimized estimate of the system's state (e.g. position and velocity). The algorithm works recursively in real time on streams of noisy input observation data (typically, sensor measurements) and filters out errors using a least-squares curve-fit optimized with a mathematical prediction of the future state generated through a modeling of the system's physical characteristics.
