Abstract:
In the last decade, logistic systems based on small aerial vehicles (drones) have become attractive for urban delivery operations as a sustainable alternative to ground vehicles because they are not affected by the congestion of the road network, thus allowing for faster and more reliable services. Aerial logistic systems, however, require a substantially different approach to operations management and need specifically designed supportive infrastructures. While the research on urban aerial delivery mostly focuses on the optimization vehicle operations, the appropriate design of supportive inf

In this paper a method for building detection in aerial images based on variational inference of logistic regression is proposed. It consists of three steps.

In the second step, a classifier of logistic regression is learned using these local features. The logistic regression can be trained using different methods.

Abstract:
The transfer of patients between two aircraft using an underway watercraft increases medical evacuation reach and flexibility in maritime environments. The selection of any one of multiple underway watercraft for patient exchange is complicated by participating aircraft utilization histories and participating watercraft positions and velocities. The selection problem is modeled as a semi-Markov decision process with an action space including both fixed land and moving watercraft exchange points. Monte Carlo tree search with root parallelization is used to select optimal exchange points and det

The history of small-sized, low-speed unmanned aerial vehicles, in contrast to the history of unmanned aerial vehicles, is not counted for half a century, but only for two dozen years. The first publications devoted to small-sized and low-speed unmanned aerial vehicles were published after 2008. The number of publications on the specified subject significantly increased in 2017-2018. It is during this period that military operations using small-sized and low-speed unmanned aerial vehicles become widespread. As an example, we can mention the attacks on the oil refinery in Saudi Arabia in Septem

The best examples in a given subject area are used to shape the appearance of the designed product. The selection of the product prototype is carried out using multidimensional optimization methods based on criteria and value/utility theory. The paper proposes to use bidirectional (two-sided) requirements for indicator values that are implemented through the norm model. Prior to assessing indicators based on superiority relations within a finite set of alternatives, an analysis is conducted to verify compliance with the norm. This approach enables the ordering of objects based on the magnitude

This paper deals with the development of a realtime structural health monitoring system for airframe structures to localize and estimate the magnitude of the loads causing deflections to the critical components, such as wings. To this end, a framework that is based on artificial neural networks is developed where features that are extracted from a depth camera are utilized. The localization of the load is treated as a multinomial logistic classification problem and the load magnitude estimation as a logistic regression problem.

In this paper, we introduce a novel approach which considers UAV detection as an imagery classification problem.

Abstract A hazard-rating model for defoliation by the yellowheaded spruce sawfly was developed and validated using 25 white spruce plantations in north central Minnesota. The dependent variable was degree of defoliation, and the independent variables, as measured from small-format aerial photographs, were steepness and slope aspect. The site characteristics and defoliation were correlated using a maximum likelihood logistic regression. The final model determined that steep, south-facing slopes had the highest probability of sawfly-caused defoliation. Identification of high-hazard sites should

The parameters, including speed, deceleration rate, truck percentage, traffic volume, and vehicle trajectories, were extracted from video images. The TTCs were calculated for each vehicle.

In this paper, we first state a mathematical formulation of the Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) applied to logistic routing, where a truck cooperates synchronously with multiple UAVs for parcel delivery.
