Advancing AI Reliability for Space Missions through Machine Learning Operations
Read more: Advancing AI Reliability for Space Missions through Machine Learning OperationsMission Control, with the support of the Canadian Space Agency, is developing and launching Mission Persistence in 2025 to introduce and test new approaches to AI in space operations. Mission Control’s technology demonstration will maintain onboard AI models in-orbit through the use of an MLOps pipeline in the ground segment that divides pre-production data and…

Federated Learning on Edge Devices in a Lunar Analogue Environment
Read more: Federated Learning on Edge Devices in a Lunar Analogue EnvironmentTo explore the use of federated learning in a lunar operations scenario, we implemented federated learning in a lunar analogue environment across a network of distributed lunar nodes, including rovers, and trained a flight-ready deep learning lunar terrain classifier, MoonNet Federated. We offer our insights as to how to construct an optimal federation for a…
