What if a UAV could adjust its own control settings?
PyData Yerevan opens the year with its first meetup of 2026, focused on how Reinforcement Learning can be used to tune PID controllers for UAV control.

PyData Yerevan February 2026 Talk: Adjusting PID Coefficients Using Reinforcement Learning for UAV Control
Speaker: Davit Ghazaryan, Adjunct Lecturer, AUA

In this talk, you’ll see how:
Reinforcement Learning is used together with classical control
PID Coefficients are tuned in a realistic UAV simulation
Learning agents interact with an autopilot using RLDroneSim, ArduPilot SITL, and Gazebo

The research presented is being conducted as part of a project supported by the #Afeyan Family Foundation.
Let’s start 2026 with a meetup focused on applied research and real systems.
