Unscented Kalman filter for position estimation of UAV by using image information

In this paper, the position estimation problem is solved by using unscented Kalman filter with observation uncertainty’s compensations. These observation uncertainties causing the estimation become inaccurate in position estimate problem. Visual observation is difficult for an unmanned aerial vehicl...
