An extention of the RTS Kalman filter that uses the Madgwick filter for orientation estimation.

This method is basically identical to the normal RtsKalman filter, but uses the Madgwick filter for orientation estimation. This should provide more robust orientation updates during long regions without ZUPTs. The influence of the Madgwick filter can be controlled by the madgwick_beta parameter.

Parameters:
initial_orientation

The initial orientation of the sensor that is assumed. It is critical that this value is close to the actual orientation. If you pass an array, remember that the order of elements must be x, y, z, w.

zupt_variance

The variance of the noise of the measured velocity during a ZUPT. As we are typically pretty sure, that the velocity should be zero then, this should be very small.

velocity_error_variance

The variance of the noise present in the velocity error. Should be based on the sensor accelerometer noise.

orientation_error_variance

The variance of the noise present in the orientation error. Should be based on the sensor gyroscope noise. The orientation error is internally not represented as quaternion, but as axis-angle representation, which also explains the unit of rad^2 for this variance.

level_walking

Flag to control if the level walking assumptions should be used during ZUPTs. If this is True, additionally to the velocity, the z position is reset to zero during a ZUPT.

level_walking_variance

The variance of the noise of the measured position during a level walking update. Should typically be very small.

zupt_detector

An instance of a valid Zupt detector that will be used to find ZUPTs.

madgwick_beta

The beta parameter of the Madgwick filter. This parameter controls how harsh the acceleration based correction is. A high value performs large corrections and a small value small and gradual correction. A high value should only be used if the sensor is moved slowly. A value of 0 is identical to just the Gyro Integration (i.e. identical to the RtsKalman).

use_magnetometer

Flag to control if the magnetometer should be used in the Madgwick filter. Note, that the rest of the algorithm does not change based on this parameter. The Kalman update steps and the error propagation still only consider the accelerometer and gyroscope data. If True, the data is expected to have the mag_x, mag_y, mag_z columns.

Other Parameters:
data

The data passed to the estimate method

sampling_rate_hz

The sampling rate of this data

Attributes:
orientation_

Orientations as pd.DataFrame.

orientation_object_

The orientations as a single scipy Rotation object

position_

The calculated positions

velocity_

The calculated velocities

covariance_

The covariance matrices of the kalman filter after smoothing. They can be used as a measure of how good the filter worked and how accurate the results are.

zupts_

2D array indicating the start and the end samples of the detected ZUPTs for debug purposes.

rotated_data_

Rotated data.

from_json(json_str)

Import an gaitmap object from its json representation.

get_params([deep])

Get parameters for this algorithm.

set_params(**params)

Set the parameters of this Algorithm.

to_json()

Export the current object parameters as json.

clone() Self[source]#

Create a new instance of the class with all parameters copied over.

This will create a new instance of the class itself and all nested objects

estimate(data: DataFrame, *, sampling_rate_hz: float, stride_event_list: DataFrame | None = None) Self[source]#

Estimate the position, velocity and orientation of the sensor.

Parameters:
data

Continuous sensor data including gyro and acc values. The gyro data is expected to be in deg/s!

sampling_rate_hz

The sampling rate of the data in Hz

stride_event_list

Optional stride event list that will be passed to the ZUPT detector. If this information is actually used depends on the ZUPT detector.

Returns:
self

The class instance with all result attributes populated

classmethod from_json(json_str: str) Self[source]#

Import an gaitmap object from its json representation.

For details have a look at the this example.

You can use the to_json method of a class to export it as a compatible json string.

Parameters:
json_str

json formatted string

get_params(deep: bool = True) dict[str, Any][source]#

Get parameters for this algorithm.

Parameters:
deep

Only relevant if object contains nested algorithm objects. If this is the case and deep is True, the params of these nested objects are included in the output using a prefix like nested_object_name__ (Note the two “_” at the end)

Returns:
params

Parameter names mapped to their values.

set_params(**params: Any) Self[source]#

Set the parameters of this Algorithm.

To set parameters of nested objects use nested_object_name__para_name=.

to_json() str[source]#

Export the current object parameters as json.

For details have a look at the this example.

You can use the from_json method of any gaitmap algorithm to load the object again.

Warning

This will only export the Parameters of the instance, but not any results!
