• Abstract: Data science, and machine learning in particular, is rapidly transforming the scientific and industrial landscapes. The aerospace industry is poised to capitalize on big data and machine learning, which excels at solving the types of multi-objective, constrained optimization problems that arise in aircraft design and manufacturing. Indeed, emerging methods in machine learning may be thought of as data-driven optimization techniques that are ideal for high-dimensional, non-convex, and constrained, multi-objective optimization problems, and that improve with increasing volumes of data. In this review, we will explore the opportunities and challenges of integrating data-driven science and engineering into the aerospace industry. Importantly, we will focus on the critical need for interpretable, generalizeable, explainable, and certifiable machine learning techniques for safety-critical applications. This review will include a retrospective, an assessment of the current state-of-the-art, and a roadmap looking forward. Recent algorithmic and technological trends will be explored in the context of critical challenges in aerospace design, manufacturing, verification, validation, and services. In addition, we will explore this landscape through several case studies in the aerospace industry. This document is the result of close collaboration between UW and Boeing to summarize past efforts and outline future opportunities.

  Computer vision tasks are crucial for aerospace missions as they help spacecraft to understand and interpret the space environment. Traditional methods like Kalman Filtering, Structure from Motion, and Multi-View Stereo are not robust enough to handle harsh conditions. Deep learning (DL)-based perception technologies have shown great potential and outperformed traditional methods.

  Recent advances in machine learning, coupled with low-cost computation, have led to widespread multi-disciplinary research activity. Mechanistic models, based on physical equations, and purely data-driven statistical approaches represent two ends of the modelling spectrum. New hybrid, data-centric engineering approaches, leveraging the best of both worlds and integrating both simulations and data, are emerging as a powerful tool.
