“…Different data acquisition devices employ different characteristics (accuracy, noise, sampling frequency), and raw data, in most cases, if not all, need post-processing.Vehicle trajectory extraction, reconstruction, filtering, or smoothing are closely related and have attracted research interest more than half a century ago with the seminal works of 1 (i.e., Wiener filter), and 2 (i.e., Rauch-Tung-Striebel smoother). It is an important topic that can enable investigations on various other topics, e.g., emissions or energy demand 3,4 , traffic dynamics 5-8 , modeling and control 9-11 , control 11 , connected and automated vehicles and driver understanding 12,13 , while this list is not exhaustive.At the same time, more and more datasets with experimental observations have become publicly available, and nowadays, it becomes easier to organize experimental campaigns and study complex phenomena empirically. Filtering techniques are applied to the raw data to remove noise and obtain quality measurements.…”
