This book offers a comprehensive exploration of federated learning (FL), a novel approach to decentralized, privacy-preserving machine learning. This book delves into the resilience and security challenges inherent to FL, such as model poisoning and malicious attacks, that jeopardize system integrity. Through cutting-edge research and practical insights, the book introduces defense mechanisms like representational similarity analysis and visual explanation techniques, which safeguard FL mo...

In-depth exploration of machine learning techniques applied to UAV operations and communications, highlighting areas of potential growth and research gapsArtificial Intelligence for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles provides a comprehensive overview of machine learning (ML) techniques used in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operations, communications, sensing, and computing.

This book deals with the SLF/ELF wave propagation, an important branch of electromagnetic theory. The SLF/ELF wave propagation theory is well applied in earthquake electromagnetic radiation, submarine communication, thunderstorm detection, and geophysical prospecting and diagnostics. The propagation of SLF/ELF electromagnetic waves is introduced in various media like the earth-ionospheric waveguide, ionospheric plasma, sea water, earth, and the boundary between two different media or the s...
