Completed as part of AAE590 Advanced Control Applications (2024) at Purdue University.

This project tackles orbital pursuit-evasion, where a spacecraft must capture a moving target in orbit while dealing with incomplete information.

• Used Unscented Kalman Filter estimation for evader state and strategy inference.
• Compared complete-information, zero-sum, and UKF-informed control approaches.
• Modeled dynamics with Euler-Hill equations for realistic debris-like scenarios.

This project studied distributed machine learning in a system-of-systems context, modeled as collaborating AI companies with different data and network roles.

• Analyzed the effect of topology and data diversity on model quality.
• Implemented a three-phase process: local training, parameter sharing, and aggregation.
• Observed links between node centrality and model accuracy variance.

Completed as part of Systems of Systems (AAE56000) at Purdue University.
