Description: International audience ; This paper focuses on the implementation of a novel supervised Machine Learning model for estimating helicopterweight during takeoff, utilizing extensive datasets from Airbus’s global in-service fleet. The study details a learningassurance process aligned with the EASA concept paper for machine learning application, and with the on-goingEurocae ED-324. We propose a set of Machine Learning Requirements, a Machine Learning Model Description, andits implementation for a long short-term memory recurrent neural network. Finally, we verify the requirements on theimplementation. Demonstrated on legacy avionics computers, the implementation is suitable for the deployment ofthe developed Machine Learning Model weight estimator on airborne targets for critical functions such as on-boardalerting.
