Computational Intelligence-Based Modeling of UAV-Integrated PV Systems
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The optimal utilization of UAV-integrated photovoltaic (PV) systems demands accurate modeling that accounts for dynamic flight conditions. This paper introduces a novel computational intelligence-based framework that models the behavior of a moving PV system mounted on a UAV. A unique mathematical approach is developed to translate UAV flight dynamics, specifically roll, pitch, and yaw, into the tilt and azimuth angles of the PV module. To adaptively estimate the diode ideality factor under varying conditions, the Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) algorithm is employed, outperforming traditional methods like Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Using a one-year environmental dataset, multiple machine learning (ML) models are trained to predict maximum power point (MPP) parameters for a commercial PV panel. The best-performing model, Rational Quadratic Gaussian Process Regression (RQGPR), demonstrates high accuracy and low computational cost. Furthermore, the proposed ML-based model is experimentally integrated into an incremental conductance (IC) MPPT technique, forming a hybrid MPPT controller. Hardware and experimental validations confirm the model’s effectiveness in real-time MPP prediction and tracking, highlighting its potential for enhancing UAV endurance and energy efficiency.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 teacher head, not a consensus.
