Computer speeds have increased more than one-thousandfold since the announcement of the Kalman filter. This now makes it possible to operate filters based on the Gauss-Newton algorithm. These offer significant advantages over the Kalman filter because of their consistency with the Cramer-Rao lower bound (which the Kalman filter is not) as well as their greater flexibility and numerous other features that will be discussed in the talk.
