Presented study introduces a novel distributed cloud-edge framework for autonomous multi-UAV systems that combines the computational efficiency of neuromorphic computing with nature-inspired control strategies. The proposed architecture equips each UAV with an individual Spiking Neural Network (SNN) that learns to reproduce optimal control signals generated by a cloud-based controller, enabling robust operation even during communication interruptions.

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery plays a vital role in identifying flooded areas in the aftermath causing loss of life and significant economic and environmental damage, as water surfaces reflect less microwave energy compared to land due to their smooth texture and low surface roughness.

This paper presents a comparative study of sampling methods within the FedHome framework, designed for personalized in-home health monitoring. FedHome leverages federated learning (FL) and generative convolutional autoencoders (GCAE) to train models on decentralized edge devices while prioritizing data privacy. A notable challenge in this domain is the class imbalance in health data, where critical events such as falls are underrepresented, adversely affecting model performance.
