Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT: Motivated by a requirement to provide real-time meter-level positioning of a NASCAR racing car, a modification of the standard Kalman filter was devised. This paper describes an approach that incorporates previous as well as current position states in a Kalman filter to take advantage of phase measurements differenced over time. In this formulation, the phase measurement difference is a measure of the difference in position in the line-of-sight direction to the satellite, so it can act as a relative position constraint of the current position with respect to the previous one. The formulation of the delta-phase observation equation is described, as well as the modifications made to the Kalman filter to incorporate it. An example used to illustrate the effectiveness of the delta-phase measurements in controlling position error growth is included. Test results in various urban environments are presented.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
