The Tobit-Unscented-Kalman-Filter-Based Attitude Estimation Algorithm Using the Star Sensor and Inertial Gyro Combination.
Article in Micromachines, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
For the orbit operation of spacecraft, due to environmental factors, a star sensor installed on the spacecraft must have data censoring, which greatly reduces the attitude determination ability of the traditional combined-attitude-determination algorithm. To address this problem, this paper proposes an algorithm for high-precision attitude estimation based on a Tobit unscented Kalman filter. This is on the basis of establishing the nonlinear state equation of the integrated star sensor and gyroscope navigation system. The measurement update process of the unscented Kalman filter is improved. The Tobit model is used to describe the gyroscope drift when the star sensor fails. The latent measurement values are calculated using the probability statistics, and the measurement error covariance expression is derived. The proposed design is verified via computer simulations. When the star sensor fails for 15 min, the accuracy of the Tobit unscented Kalman filter based on the Tobit model is improved by approximately 90% compared to the unscented Kalman filter. Based on the results, the proposed filter can effectively estimate the error caused by the gyro drift, and the method is effective and feasible, provided there is theoretical support for the engineering practice.
