A Poisson Kalman filter for disease surveillance [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Research 2, 043028 (2020), 2020 An optimal filter for Poisson observations is developed as a variant of the traditional Kalman filter. Poisson distributions are characteristic of infectious diseases, which model the number of patients recorded as presenting each day to a health care system. We develop both a linear and nonlinear (extended) filter.
