Seminar by Alouette van Hove (Dept of Geosciences, University of Oslo):
Guiding drones by information gain
Abstract: This presentation will explore two sampling strategies designed to infer the location and emission rate of gas plumes using data assimilation based on atmospheric drone measurements. Both approaches share a common objective: to optimize the information gained from observations at sequential locations. We will compare the nearsighted approach of infotaxis to a farsighted navigation strategy trained through deep reinforcement learning.
The talk is in Aud 1 in the Geology Building. It is also possible to follow at Zoom.
Video link to the lecture will be sent to the mailing lists alle@geo and geohyd-info@geo. If you want to subscribe to the geohyd-info@geo list send an email to Anita.
