Chapter 12 Particle Filters: Estimate first then resample?

Open GGengg opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Hi Rabbe,

First of all thanks for the amazing work. In your complete example, you did the resampling first and then estimate, which confuses me. Shouldn't we estimate the position based on the probability distribution modelled by particles given the measurement? If we were to resample first and then estimate, the estimated position is not quite reflecting the measurement, but rather an estimation from the resampled dense distribution of the particles. Please let me know if theres something wrong with my understanding. Thanks
