Track Smoothing

In this important step, the latest track prediction is combined with the associated plot to provide a new, improved estimate of the target state as well as a revised estimate of the errors in this prediction. There is a wide variety of algorithms, of differing complexity and computational load, that can be used for this process.

Famous quotes containing the words track and/or smoothing:

    Away went the messenger’s bicycle,
    His serpent’s track went up the hill forever.
    And all the time she stood there hot as fever
    And cold as any icicle.
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    Whale on the beach, you dinosaur,
    what brought you smoothing into this dead harbor?
    If you’d stayed inside you could have grown
    as big as the Empire State.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
