comment on equation correctness
Line 3:

The description is very hard to follow. It is incomplete, being based upon and making reference to a book that is not available online. The one-dimensional vectors are written wrongly in the matrix formulas (horizontal instead of vertical). IMO, this article needs a fundamental re-writing, it is extremely frustrating to read as it is.

b_{k+1:t} = TO_{k+1}b_{k+2:t}
 
no point product with f, no normalization (this is a probability, NOT a distribution; it should certainly not sum to 1). This is only the backward message, implements the updates shown on pp. 545 eq (15.7).
 
You multiply the b with the corresponding f in each time slice to obtained the smoothed vectors sv, as shown on pp. 544 eq (15.6). So as written, there are two multiplications by f taking place! Eq 15.7 shows how the RHS of 15.6 breaks down, NOT the LHS.

The word 'umbrella' appears suddenly in the middle of the example.
What is this t=1 'umbrella'?
