(NEPTUNE) Safety-Assured Apprenticeship Learning for Vision-Based Control of UAS in Riverine Environments

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are expected to support small Marine Corps/SOF units in a widerange of new tactical roles, e.g., a wingman for dismounted Marines during their scouting andpatrolling missions. The project addresses some key issues impeding the future development anddeployment of such UAS. In particularly, the project aims to develop a safety-assuredapprenticeship learning framework and use it to train a vision-based UAS capable of flying insidecomplex and GPS-denied riverine environments safely and effectively.
