Talk:Ensemble Kalman filter

Needs rewriting for style

The style is very technical and in fact reads as if copied from a technical article of some sort. Could do with some work on making it a more encyclopaedic style, please --mcld (talk) 08:45, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Two notes

Two remarks for a non-specialist reader.

1. The probabilistic interpretations of both the KF and the EnKF are quite common these days, and are quite difficult for people without statistical background. However, one can perfectly see both as optimal solutions of a quadratic problem.

2. The interpretation of the EnKF as a Monte-Carlo approximation of the Kalman filter only refers to the traditional, or perturbed observations EnKF. In contrast, the ensemble square root filter (ESRF) can be seen as a state space formulation of the Kalman filter; at least for perfect-model linear systems. It should be a preferred option in practice over the traditional EnKF due to better performance (at comparable numerical effectiveness).

... do not work. Maybe they should all point to ucdenver.edu? --134.102.204.124 (talk) 15:36, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Should cite the original article

This article was translated from LaTeX to wiki by the author, as stated in the original work. A link to the article is https://arxiv.org/abs/0901.3725 The source should be in the references somehow. --Mfortini (talk) 14:43, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
