Week 9: How The Drone Net Works - Software Pt. 3 - Machine Learning
Hello Everyone! During this week, the Professor and I planned out a few hardware changes for the Drone Net. We will work on these modifications next week, so stay tuned for the updates. This week, I would like to hopefully conclude my discussion of the software side of the Drone Net. Why perform manual checks, if the Drone Net is designed to classify aerial objects by itself? The answer is straightforward, but requires some explanation. Machine learning is a basic form of artificial intelligence and is the reason that manual checks of Drone Net's output are required. Machine learning is just what it sounds like, a way for machines to 'learn.' Any text in this font will be "code," that the computer will interpret. For example, let's say we wanted to write a program to tell the difference between oranges and apples in this picture: The Simple Way: Load the picture Search pixel by pixel for colors Lots of orange pixels = "Orange&
