Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Space Domain Awareness: The Development of Two Artificial Intelligence Case Studies

This report documents the feasibility of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) when applied to the U.S. Space Force and space domain awareness. The ability to estimate the current and future states and uncertainties of a resident space object is fundamental for current space domain awareness processes. The authors tested AI/ML algorithms to determine their suitability for these tasks and to inform development of AI/ML applications.
