Early approaches in discrete and continuous-time settings primarily investigate the challenges of decentralized stabilization of the observer error dynamics, reduction of computational complexity and information fusion in the presence of noise, possibly with the initial observer synthesis relying on global system knowledge and the ultimate data processing being centralized. Instead, recent approaches Star Student Project focus on distributed observer design with a distributed observer synthesis based on local information, local computation and data processing, and communication constraints.
