Real-Time Object Detection And Tracking On Drones, Tu Le May 2018

Real-Time Object Detection And Tracking On Drones, Tu Le

Undergraduate Research & Mentoring Program

Unmanned aerial vehicles, also known as drones, have been more and more widely used in recent decades because of their mobility. They appear in many applications such as farming, search and rescue, entertainment, military, and so on. Such high demands for drones lead to the need of developments in drone technologies. Next generations of commercial and military drones are expected to be aware of surrounding objects while flying autonomously in different terrains and conditions. One of the biggest challenges to drone automation is the ability to detect and track objects of interest in real-time. While there are many robust machine …

"Learning Hardware" approach involves creating a computational network based on feedback from the environment (for instance, positive and negative examples from the trainer), and realizing this network in an array of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). Computational networks can be built based on incremental supervised learning (Neural Net training) or global construction (Decision Tree design). Here we advocate the approach to Learning Hardware based on Constructive Induction methods of Machine Learning (ML) using multivalued functions. This is contrasted with the Evolvable Hardware (EHW) approach in which learning/evolution is based on the genetic algorithm only.
