Transfer Learning
Transfer Learning Across Similar Subsystems
Transfer learning across similar subsystems is a software architecture stored on radiation-hardened NOR flash and executed by an ML accelerator to apply operational lessons between similar subsystems across a lunar fleet. Operating on 1 watt of power with a 100-year lifetime and a 500,000-hour mean time between failures, the component executes approximately 50 model transfers per year. The multi-decade operational timeframe of lunar missions necessitates autonomous cross-subsystem pattern transfer, requiring audit trails and authenticated transfer decisions to safely adapt learning across the fleet.
Transfer learning applying lessons from one subsystem's experience to similar subsystems — accelerating learning across the fleet.
