A comprehensive approach to predict a rocket's impact with stochastic estimators and artificial neural networks

Abstract One of the current ways to continue space research is to launch ballistic rockets that carry scientific payloads. To improve the accuracy of the instantaneous evolution of the payload impact on the Earths surface, it is necessary to estimate indirect measures more efficiently. This study pr...
