UAV Multi-Dynamic Target Interception: A Hybrid Intelligent Method Using Deep Reinforcement Learning and Fuzzy Logic
Bibliographic record
Abstract
With the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence, AI-enabled Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles have garnered extensive attention since they offer an accessible and cost-effective solution for executing tasks in unknown or complex environments. However, developing secure and effective AI-based algorithms that empower agents to learn, adapt, and make precise decisions in dynamic situations continues to be an intriguing area of study. This paper proposes a hybrid intelligent control framework that integrates an enhanced Soft Actor–Critic method with a fuzzy inference system, incorporating pre-defined expert experience to streamline the learning process. Additionally, several practical algorithms and approaches within this control system are developed. With the synergy of these innovations, the proposed method achieves effective real-time path planning in unpredictable environments under a model-free setting. Crucially, it addresses two significant challenges in RL: dynamic-environment problems and multi-target problems. Diverse scenarios incorporating actual UAV dynamics were designed and simulated to validate the performance in tracking multiple mobile intruder aircraft. A comprehensive analysis and comparison of methods relying solely on RL and other influencing factors, as well as a controller feasibility assessment for real-world flight tests, are conducted, highlighting the advantages of the proposed hybrid architecture. Overall, this research advances the development of AI-driven approaches for UAV safe autonomous navigation under demanding airspace conditions and provides a viable learning-based control solution for different types of robots.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
