AI / Artificial Intelligence in Airport Simulation
Artificial intelligence (AI) brings autonomous, learning-based behavior into airport simulation, allowing models to react to changing conditions much as real operations would.
Â
AI IS CHARACTERIZED BY FOUR KEY CAPABILITIES:
Autonomous decision-making: AI agents make decisions and execute actions independently within the simulation, adapting to dynamic environments without being explicitly programmed for every situation.
Learning ability: The software integrates data from multiple sources — flight plans, sensor data, passenger behavior — and uses it to train the AI agents
Realistic modeling: Complex interactions between elements of the airport system, such as aircraft, passengers, and ground staff, are modeled realistically.
Explainability and transparency: The software makes each agent's decision-making transparent and easy to understand, so results can be trusted and audited.
