BFL's History

BFL was born during the PhD research of Klaas Gadeyne (See http://people.mech.kuleuven.be/~kgadeyne/). Through an analysis of the general Bayesian framework underneath the above mentioned Bayesian filters, he designed the state estimation software framework/library BFL, containing support for different filters (in particular Sequential Monte Carlo methods and Kalman filters, but also e.g. grid based methods) and easily extendible towards other Bayesian methods. Late 2001, BFL was released as an open source project, and is since then slowly growing and maturing.
