An integrated deep ensemble-unscented Kalman filter for sideslip angle estimation with sensor filtering network

초록

An integration scheme for sideslip angle estimation is proposed where a deep neural network and a simple kinematics-based model are combined in an unscented Kalman filter. The deep neural network contains two modules: a sensor filtering network designed to overcome the limitations of the kinematics-based model and a deep ensemble network to estimate the sideslip angle and its uncertainty. Both networks use recurrent neural networks with long short-term memory to analyze sequential sensor data. The networks were trained using only input signal sets that can be obtained from on-board sensor measurements. The filtering network reduces the noise and bias of the input signals to match the model used for the unscented Kalman filter. Next, the initial estimate and its uncertainty obtained from the deep ensemble network are utilized as a new measurement in the unscented Kalman filter, inducing an adaptive measurement variance. The algorithm was verified through both simulation and experiment, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
