Abstract
We propose an extension to the capabiliti es of the Intelligent Autopilot System (IAS) from our previou s work, to be able to learn handling emergencies by observing and imitating human pilots. The IAS is a potential solution to th e current problem of Automatic Flight Control Systems of bein g unable to handle flight uncertainties, and the need to constr uct control models manually. A robust Learning by Imitation app roach is proposed which uses human pilots to demonstrate the task to be learned in a flight simulator while training datase ts are captured from these demonstrations. The datasets are then us ed by Artificial Neural Networks to generate control models automati cally. The control models imitate the skills of the human pilo t when handling flight emergencies including engine(s) failure or f ire, Rejected Take Off (RTO), and emergency landing, while a flig ht manager program decides which ANNs to be fired given the cu rrent condition. Experiments show that, even after being presented with limited examples, the IAS is able to handle such fl ight emergencies with high accuracy.
