Explain the Adaptive Part of Adaptive Algorithms - Kalman Filter and Least Mean Square / Constant Modulus
Adaptive Filters are called "Adaptive" when they can adapt to changes in data.
In the filters you mentioned above, which are part of the Linear Filters family the property means their coefficients are ...

Likelihood of Unscented Kalman filter
Your mistake is that $\mathcal Z$ does depend on process noise. It's just a bit more obscure than the linear filter. $\mathcal Z$ is the projection of the sigma points through the observation function....

Implementing Kalman filter or extended or unscented with only position information
from the generality of your question then yes you can design a Kalman filter which would accept the target position as the only measurement possibly corrupted with noise.
Then the Kalman filter will ...

What is the name for a constant-heading Kalman filter model for vehicle tracking?
I think the magic acronym is CHCV, "constant heading constant velocity". This returns at least a few results on Google.

How to determine covariance matrices $\mathbf P$, $\mathbf Q$, and $\mathbf R$ in Extended Kalman Filter
For a Kalman filter -- either extended or plain old, you compute the state covariance ($\mathbf P$) at each iteration of the filter.
Nearly always, the measurement and process noise need to be known ...

EKF: IMU vs State Transition Model
If you know nothing about the system dynamics, but you do trust the IMU, then you can use the IMU as your system input.
I.e., your state vector would be $\mathbf x = \begin{bmatrix} \mathbf v & \...

Kalman filter in data fusion
I guess you could consider one algorithm to output the prediction and its covariance matrix, one algorithm to output the measurement (in the Kalman filter sense) and its covariance matrix.
To be more ...

Kalman filtering with dynamic covariance/variance
Just look at the Kalman equations:
Whereas normally, $Q_t$ and $R_t$ are constants (do not depend on $t$), your measurement noise covariance ($Q_t$) will be time varying.
The only real upshot is that ...

Kalman Filter - Deriving state transition function
Hi Matthias La: I hate to be critical but the first example at the link you provided is actually quite poor because they end up using exponential smoothing (their update for $\hat{x}$ can re-written ...

How is a Particle Filter used to Estimate Parameters of a State Transition Function?
I suppose I can treat the parameters of the state transition function as the space in which I want to generate the particles ... Is this how it's done with a particle filter?
More or less, yes. You'...

Application of UKF on quaternions
Yes, it's perfectly possible. All that you'll need is to model how you think the angular velocity components of the state will evolve. Usually simple brownian (random) motion is enough, at least to ...

Is there a difference what measurement units use in covariance matrix
[20180801: Stats update at the end]
Units matter, when they differ (I love the rhyme)
If they are commensurable, all values can be ranked, ordered, pairwise operated. While products of data with ...

Unscented Kalman Filter - Multiple Consecutive Measurement Updates
@Royi's and user28715's answers are correct. So just add this answer to theirs.
If you let the system's output matrix $H$ go to zero, then two things happen. First, you are modeling a time increment ...
