Kalman filter

<t>Hello, I would like to implement kalman filter when the measurement matrix is time varying. the model is as follows:Yt = Ht * Zt + Et Ht = [ 1 Mt] Zt = Zt-1 + Vt.can anyone tell me how to do this with KALCVF function in iml. My problem is that my Ht is time varying while in KALCVF I need Ht to b...
