It is obvious, that a computation of the full posterior could solve the above, but finding such an analytical solution is an intractable problem, which is the reason for applying a sample representation in the first place.
Another promising way is to recover the probability density function from the sample set itself, by using a non-parametric estimator like a kernel density estimation (KDE).
With this, it is easy to recover the \qq{real} most probable state and thus to avoid the aforementioned drawbacks.
With this, the \qq{real} most probable state is given by the maxima of the density estimation and thus avoids the aforementioned drawbacks.
However, non-parametric estimators tend to consume a large amount of computational time, which renders them unpractical for real time scenarios.
Nevertheless, the availability of a fast processing density estimate might improve the accuracy of today's sensor fusion systems without sacrificing their real time capability.
