SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR EXPERT GUIDED RULE BASED IDENTIFICATION OF RELEVANT PLANETARY IMAGES FOR DOWNLINKING OVER LIMITED BANDWIDTH

摘要

Various embodiments disclosed herein relate to systems and methods for an intelligent autonomous decision making module that maximizes the return of the most scientifically relevant dataset over the low bandwidth for experts to analyze further. A rule based knowledge extraction methodology is disclosed, guided by expert knowledge for all scientifically relevant geological landforms with respect to expert selected attributes. The datasets are subsequently prioritized based on how novel the instances are with respect to its rule and is used to update the rules. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is then determined by evaluating how acceptable the prioritization order is to experts and explaining the decisions to increase the interpretability of the assigned priority.
