Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Space Domain Awareness

By Jonathan Tran, Li Ang Zhang, Krista Langeland

This report characterizes the nature of the impact that artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) tools could bring to the U.S. Space Force's space domain awareness (SDA) mission, with a focus on the conjunction assessment process to quantify the risk of collision in space. The impact of AI/ML tools has not been well understood, and this lack of understanding is a barrier to planning and optimizing the tools' integration.
