Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Vision and flight are closely linked, leading to a longstanding interest in how the two are connected. Past research has proposed models for vision in control for biological examples of flight, and there has been recent interest in the use of vision for low-level control of small robotic aircraft such as quad-rotor helicopters. In the work presented here, we show a system for stabilization of a small, fixedwing aircraft in the yaw axis using estimates of parametric optical flow obtained by registration of consecutive video images from a camera mounted on the aircraft. Estimates of angular velocity from the registration replace the values that would otherwise come from a gyro in a conventional stabilization system. No markers or special targets are required – just an environment with enough visual variation to enable image registration. We demonstrate the system in flight and show qualitatively the efficacy of the stabilization from external observation of the aircraft, and from the video acquired from the onboard camera. 1 Introduction

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
