Abstract
In our previous work, we compared the performance of the extended Kalman filter (EKF), unscented Kalman filter (UKF), and particle filter (PF) for the angle-only filtering (AOF) problem in 3D using Cartesian coordinates and modified spherical coordinates (MSC) for the relative state vector. We found that the UKF-MSC and EKF-MSC had the best performance in accuracy, the UKF-MSC being slightly better than the EKF-MSC. The PF didn't perform well compared with the EKF and UKF and had a higher computational cost. In this work, we compare the performance of the particle flow filter (PFF) with the other filters for the AOF problem. In addition, we also analyze the performance of two versions of the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) in this comparative study. We present numerical results from Monte Carlo simulations to analyze the state estimation accuracy and computational cost of these filters.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
