| contents | This paper introduces a Gaussian Bayesian Network-based Extended Kalman Filter (GBN-EKF) for non-linear state estimators on stiff and ill-conditioned continuous-discrete stochastic systems, with a further analysis on systems with ill-conditioned measurements. For most nonlinear systems, the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) and the Cubature Kalman Filter (CKF) typically outperform the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF). But, in state estimation of stochastic systems, the EKF outperforms the CKF and UKF. This paper aims to extend the advantages of the EKF by applying a Gaussian Bayesian Network approach to the EKF (GBN-EKF), and analyzing its performance against all three filters. The GBN-EKF does not utilize any matrix inversions. This makes the GBN-EKF stable with respect to ill-conditioned matrices. Further, the GBN-EKF achieves comparable accuracy to the EKF in stiff and ill-conditioned stochastic systems, while having lower root mean squared error (RMSE) under these conditions. |
