Observation Model Intro

Observation Model

p(z_t|x_t,z_{1:t-1},u_{1:t},m)

Motion Model

p(x_t|z_{1:t-1},u_{1:t},m)

Quiz: Simplifying the Observation Model

How can we manipulate/simplify the observation model?

What “trick” can we use there, which helps us to manipulate/simplify the observation model:

SOLUTION: Using the Markov Assumption (Completeness of the State Assumption)
