Welcome to Stone Soup’s documentation!
Stone Soup is a software project to provide the target tracking and state estimation community with a framework for the development and testing of tracking and state estimation algorithms.
As Stone Soup is focused on development and testing of algorithms, and such components may not be the most optimised implementations, instead focusing on being flexible. Its also intended to aid choice of component/algorithms to tackle real world problems.
Stone Soup is under active development, where feedback and contributions are welcomed to grow the number of components and features available.
Please see the Stone Soup Tutorials for learning about tracking and using Stone Soup, Examples for examples of Stone Soup features, and Demonstrations for demonstrations of using Stone Soup.
For community support, head over to the Stone Soup room on Gitter.
