To smooth trajectories, we can use a Kalman filter. The implemented KalmanSmootherCV is based on the assumption of a nearly-constant velocity (CV) model. To use KalmanSmootherCV, the optional dependency StoneSoup needs to be installed.
A closely related type of operation is trajectory generalization which is coverd in a separate notebook.
