Latest Patents

Dao is credited with 1 patent: “Reservoir Area Water Bloom Rapid Monitoring Method and Device Based on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Swarm Coordination.” The invention uses local update quantification to reduce communication between UAVs and a central server while maintaining the accuracy of the monitoring model. It defines a loss-function queue for each UAV and uses the relationship between historical and current loss functions to quantify model updates. The approach is designed to ease the transfer of large volumes of collected images, reduce communication demands, and improve model convergence by limiting frequent communication.

Career Highlights

Dao’s listed work connects UAV coordination, federated learning, and environmental monitoring. The patented method focuses on making reservoir water-bloom monitoring more efficient under communication constraints.
