In this talk, we will show how machine learning and automatic control are mutually enriched.
To do so, we will review some of the classical questions in automatic control and we show how the usual control techniques can be improved using scientific computation and AI.
Big-data data alone is not sufficient, but it can help. Some examples in fluid dynamics and in navigation will be given....
Through a long history of rigorous techniques and processes, the field of spacecraft Guidance Navigation and Control (GNC) has evolved over the years to safely and robustly meet the GNC challenging needs of rather complex mission (e.g. high pointing accuracy, agile manoeuvring). In particular, the field of Robust Control has achieved this in complex, uncertain and partially observable dynamic...
Based on the search and first results obtained on machine / deep learning on several domains such as automotive, UAV or internet, implementing IA algorithms in GNC product has recently emerged.
Presentation will present THALES ALENIA SPACE perspectives on the:
• Major current issues GNC engineers are facing and that IA algorithms may or not tackle.
• Possible support of the machine / deep...
Next generation launcher shall follow and anticipate market evolution with wider spectrum of mission which means more versatility for GNC. GNC shall also enable mastering vertical or horizontal landing for stages reusability. Furthermore, use of SMART upper stages and liquid reusable engines open new perspectives for launcher mission extension, this means modulation use, adaptation, failure...
