Deep Learning-Based Anomaly Detection in Spacecraft Telemetry on Edge Devices
Spacecraft anomaly detection is critical for mission safety, yet deploying sophisticated models on-board presents significant challenges due to hardware constraints. This paper investigates three approaches for spacecraft telemetry anomaly detection — forecasting & threshold, direct classification, and image classification — and optimizes them for edge deployment using multi-objective neural architecture optimization on the European Space Agency Anomaly Dataset. Our baseline experiments demonstrate that forecasting & threshold achieves superior detection performance (92.7% Corrected Event-wise F0.5-score (CEF0.5)) [1] compared to […]
