Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper presents a strategy for collision detection and recovery control of drones using an onboard Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). The collision detection algorithm compares the expected response of the drone with the measurements from the IMU to identify and characterize collisions. The recovery controller implements a gain scheduling approach, adjusting its parameters based on the characteristics of the collision and the drone’s attitude. Simulations were conducted to compare the proposed collision detection strategy with a popular detection method with fixed thresholds, and the simulation results showed that the proposed approach outperformed the existing method in terms of detection accuracy. Furthermore, the proposed collision detection and recovery control approaches were tested with physical experiments using a custom-built drone. The experimental results confirmed that the proposed collision detection algorithm was able to distinguish between actual collisions and aggressive flight maneuvers, and the recovery controller can recover the drone within 0.8 s.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
