/*!
WHAT THIS OBJECT REPRESENTS
This object is a simple tool for filtering a single scalar value that
measures the location of a moving object that has some non-trivial
momentum. Importantly, the measurements are noisy and the object can
experience sudden unpredictable accelerations. To accomplish this
filtering we use a simple Kalman filter with a state transition model of:
position_{i+1} = position_{i} + velocity_{i}
velocity_{i+1} = velocity_{i} + some_unpredictable_acceleration
and a measurement model of:
measured_position_{i} = position_{i} + measurement_noise
Where some_unpredictable_acceleration and measurement_noise are 0 mean Gaussian
noise sources with standard deviations of get_typical_acceleration() and
get_measurement_noise() respectively.
To allow for really sudden and large but infrequent accelerations, at each
step we check if the current measured position deviates from the predicted
filtered position by more than get_max_measurement_deviation()*get_measurement_noise()
and if so we adjust the filter's state to keep it within these bounds.
This allows the moving object to undergo large unmodeled accelerations, far
in excess of what would be suggested by get_typical_acceleration(), without
then experiencing a long lag time where the Kalman filter has to "catches
up" to the new position.

- This function finds the "optimal" settings of a momentum_filter based on
recorded measurement data stored in sequences. Here we assume that each
vector in sequences is a complete track history of some object's measured
positions. What we do is find the momentum_filter that minimizes the
following objective function:
sum of abs(predicted_location[i] - measured_location[i]) + smoothness*abs(filtered_location[i]-filtered_location[i-1])
Where i is a time index.
The sum runs over all the data in sequences. So what we do is find the
filter settings that produce smooth filtered trajectories but also produce
filtered outputs that are as close to the measured positions as possible.
The larger the value of smoothness the less jittery the filter outputs will
be, but they might become biased or laggy if smoothness is set really high.
