Autocovariance Least-Squares (ALS) PackageALS is an estimation tool for determining noise covariances from routine operating data. These covariances are used to specify the noise statistics of state estimators such as Kalman Filter (KF), Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and Moving Horizon Estimators (MHE). ALS Toolbox also provides a function to estimate the disturbance structure that affects the states. More information about the ALS technique can be found here.ALS is written for use in GNU Octave.
