-Kalman filters are fascinating! How can they be applied to QML models to provide some sort of "self-estimation" of state to be used in parameter updates? This was the fundamental question here that drove me to go on a rather extensive exploration of this topic. In this post I will describe the current position of Self-Estimating Quantum Neural Networks (SEQNN).+Kalman filtering is fascinating and has a wide area of application. How can it be applied to QML models to provide some sort of "self-estimation" of state?

 SEQNN, is an attempt to treat the parameters of a variational quantum model as latent states to be estimated sequentially, rather than as weights managed by a global optimizer. SEQNN, is an attempt to treat the parameters of a variational quantum model as latent states to be estimated sequentially, rather than as weights managed by a global optimizer.

-The important difference is not only "which update rule is used." Rather, when the model is written as an estimator, uncertainty, identifiability, calibration, and measurement attribution become terms we can use to reason with. Is that helpful? Lets see what the outcome is here.+The important difference is not only "which update rule is used."

-The project deliberately moved through increasingly demanding observation models. The key pattern is: do not add parameters, entanglement, or topology until the observation equation says what can actually be observed.+The project moved through increasingly demanding observation models.
