Deep reinforcement learning for time-critical wilderness search and rescue using drones by Jan-Hendrik Ewers, David Anderson, Douglas Thomson

“…This allows the policy to learn optimal flight paths that maximize the probability of finding the missing person quickly. Experimental results show that our method achieves a significant improvement in search times compared to traditional coverage planning and search planning algorithms by over 160%, a difference that can mean life or death in real-world search operations Additionally, unlike previous work, our approach incorporates a continuous action space enabled by cubature, allowing for more nuanced flight patterns.…”
