"Aircraft acceleration prediction using lidar trained artificial intelligence" was invented by Nathan D. Hiller (Irvine, Calif.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "An air vehicle management system comprising a controller for an air vehicle. The controller is configured to determine a prediction of an acceleration using an air vehicle model system and backscatter data. The air vehicle model system is trained to predict the acceleration using the backscatter data and is generated using backscatter light detected from emitting a laser beam in an atmosphere in a directio...
