Airbus develops ML-based helicopter weight estimator for avionics

Researchers have developed a new supervised Machine Learning model designed to estimate helicopter weight during takeoff. This model utilizes extensive data from Airbus's global fleet and incorporates a learning assurance process that aligns with EASA guidelines and the Eurocae ED-324 standard. The proposed implementation, suitable for deployment on airborne targets, uses a long short-term memory recurrent neural network and has been demonstrated on legacy avionics computers for critical functions like on-board alerting. AI

IMPACT This research could enhance aviation safety by enabling real-time weight estimation on board helicopters.
