Comparison of EKF and UKF on Training the Artificial Neural Network

The Unscented Kalman Filter is known to outperform the Extended Kalman Filter for the nonlinear state estimation with a significance advantage that it does not require the computation of Jacobian but EKF has a competitive advantage to the UKF on the performance time. We compare both algorithms on training the artificial neural network. The validation data set is used to estimate parameters which are supposed to result in better fitting for the test data set. Experimental results are presented which indicate the performance of both algorithms.
