Hi, I am currently trying to execute the code in your Notebook on Kalman filters. In the Multivariate Gaussians section this error is thrown, which seems to be an allocation problem in filterpy

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

      4 cov = [[10., 0.], 
      5        [0., 4.]]

ValueError: Unable to avoid copy while creating an array as requested.
If using `np.array(obj, copy=False)` replace it with `np.asarray(obj)` to allow a copy when needed (no behavior change in NumPy 1.x).
