Introduction to machine learning in UAVs

Abstract

In the last five years, application of drones in various fields like transportation, agriculture, security, etc. has increased. This immense use of drones makes it so popular for commercial use and this gains the interest of various organizations in it. So, the integration of drone technology with other technologies is emerging as a path to the above target. The two main technologies in computer vision have gained popularity exponentially in the last decade. These are machine and deep learning technology and using these technologies with drone technology is a great option. The aerial vehicle industry welcomes ideas that can solve various issues like power management and automatic control of drone with the help of machine learning. This chapter covers these two technologies in detail. It also shows some literature regarding integration.
