The pith
A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.
The reading
What carries the argument
The load-bearing structure is the survey's taxonomy: three AI subfields—supervised/unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, and federated learning—each introduced with its standard algorithms and then applied to UAV problems. The pedagogical mechanisms that make the taxonomy concrete are the worked Q-learning grid example, with the Bellman update $Q_{\mathrm{new}}(s_t,a_t) = (1-\alpha)Q_{\mathrm{old}}(s_t,a_t) + \alpha(R_{t+1} + \gamma \max_a Q(s_{t+1},a))$, and the federated learning update $w_{t+1}^k = w_t - \eta \nabla \ell(w_t, B)$, which shows how clients send model updates rather than raw data. These mechanisms do the work of showing readers what each AI area is before the survey reviews how it has been applied.
What would settle it
Take a random sample of about 30 papers classified in the survey's tables, read each paper's method section, and check whether the listed technique (for example, DQN, Q-learning, or federated learning) is actually used; a mismatch rate clearly above a few percent would show the survey misrepresents the literature it claims to map. A systematic search of the same period that surfaces a major AI-for-UAV work the survey omits would similarly weaken the holistic claim.
Extended reading notes
Core claim
The paper's central claim is that the state of the art in AI-enabled UAV networks can be holistically surveyed by walking through three AI subfields and mapping each onto UAV applications. For supervised and unsupervised learning, the applications are predictive deployment, channel estimation, UAV detection, and imaging; for reinforcement learning, they are path planning, scheduling, resource management, and IRS-enabled networks; for federated learning, they are resource allocation, path control, FANET security, content caching, and sensing. The survey pairs each subfield with a short tutorial (SVM, K-means, GMM, CNN, RNN; Q-learning, DQN, DDPG; SGD-based federated averaging) and with discussion sections identifying limitations and future work. It further claims that practical adoption is constrained by onboard computing limits and by regulations that lag autonomous-UAV research, and it flags a suspicion that published ML results may overstate accuracy because of dataset bias.
Load-bearing premise
The survey's map of the field is only as reliable as its 177 cited references: no systematic search or inclusion protocol is given and the authors summarize results second-hand, so a misread or omitted key work would weaken the claim to be holistic and comprehensive.
Editorial extensions
If this is right
- A newcomer can enter the field through the per-subfield primers and the worked Q-learning example without prior AI background.
- Federated learning is presented as the practical way to run machine learning on constrained drones, since it shares model updates rather than raw data and keeps learning active even when a drone is offline.
- The survey's tables classify existing RL path-planning works by technique, dimension, single- or multi-agent setup, and constraints, which makes gaps visible, such as the scarcity of resource-allocation and event-scheduling studies.
- The open problems named in the survey—client selection, convergence guarantees, communication overhead, stragglers, and regulation—define a concrete agenda for future work.
- The survey's warning that reported ML results consistently beat empirical baselines implies that readers should treat performance gains in this literature with caution.
Reading between the lines
- The survey leaves implicit that a quantitative meta-analysis could test its suspicion of 'fake ML accuracy' by correlating reported gains with dataset size, test-set bias, and whether a classical baseline was tuned.
- Its framing of federated learning suggests a testable extension: measuring whether the communication overhead of model updates outweighs the energy saved by not sending raw data, for realistic drone fleets with limited bandwidth.
- The regulation discussion gestures at a policy consequence: harmonized rules for autonomous drones could unlock realistic field trials, which are currently missing from almost every cited work.
- The IRS-UAV material points beyond the surveyed RL examples toward a broader design space where drone position and reflecting-surface phase shifts are optimized jointly; that space is only sketched in the paper.

Referee Report
Summary. This manuscript surveys the application of artificial intelligence to UAV-enabled wireless networks, organized by AI subfield: supervised/unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, and federated learning. It covers 177 references, provides tutorial introductions to each AI area, discusses applications such as deployment, channel estimation, detection, navigation, resource management, IRS-enabled UAV networks, and FL-based security and caching, and closes each section with limitations and future directions. The paper claims to offer a holistic overview that goes beyond the closest prior survey [23] by covering federated learning and IRS-enabled UAV deployments.
Significance. If its coverage is accurate, the survey would be a useful entry point for researchers new to AI-enabled UAV networks, particularly because of its FL section and its treatment of IRS-equipped UAVs, which are not covered in the closest prior survey. The explicit organization by AI subfield and the inclusion of tutorial material are genuine strengths. The paper is not a derivation-based work, so the assessment rests on the accuracy and representativeness of the survey content rather than on mathematical soundness. The authors also include candid critical discussion of common pitfalls in ML-for-wireless papers, which adds value.
major comments (3)
- [Section III-A] The tutorial on reinforcement learning contains two load-bearing errors for a survey that advertises itself as accessible to readers with no AI background. First, the discounted return is written as G_t = ∑_t γ^{t-1} R_t, which is not a well-formed definition; the standard definition is G_t = ∑_{k=0}^{∞} γ^k R_{t+k+1}. Second, the model-based/model-free distinction is misstated: the paper says model-based RL updates the value function based on the model rather than experience, and that in model-free RL 'the agent cannot predict the future.' In standard RL terminology, model-based RL uses an explicit model of transition dynamics and rewards for planning (which may include simulated experience), while model-free RL learns values or policies directly from real experience without learning such a model. These errors should be corrected because the survey's stated audience includes readers with no prior AI knowledge.
- [Table II and References [118], [119], [136]] Several citation-handling errors directly undermine the auditability of the 'holistic overview' claim. Reference [118] and reference [136] list the same title (Liu, Liu, and Chen, 'Machine learning empowered trajectory and passive beamforming design in UAV-RIS wireless networks'), one as arXiv:2010.02749 and the other as an IEEE JSAC paper, and Table II's [118] entry for Decaying DQN is inconsistent with the discussion of [136] in Section III-C2. In addition, reference [119] is assigned the same arXiv identifier (2010.02749) as [118], which cannot be correct for a distinct multi-agent NOMA paper. These are not cosmetic problems: a reader cannot independently verify which work is being summarized, and the survey's central value proposition is that it provides a reliable map of the literature.
- [Section I-B and References] The paper claims in Section I-B to provide 'a holistic overview of the state of the art research' and 'comprehensive' coverage, but it does not state any search, inclusion, or exclusion protocol for the 177 references. As a result, the representativeness of the survey is asserted rather than demonstrated. This is a fixable issue: the authors should either add a short methodology paragraph describing the databases, search terms, and inclusion criteria, or soften the 'holistic/comprehensive' claims to 'broad overview' to match the actual scope.
minor comments (5)
- [Section I-A] The text says 'a motion planning for UAVs guide was presented in [19] and a survey for UAV traffic monitoring is provided in [20],' but in the reference list [19] is the Chen et al. ANN tutorial and [20] is the Goerzen et al. motion planning survey; the citations appear to be swapped.
- [Table I] Reference [54] is listed as a pedestrian detection paper with 'Faster R-CNN+Region proposal network(RPN),' but the reference list entry [54] is Zhang, Tang, and Roemer, 'Probabilistic weather forecasting analysis for unmanned aerial vehicle path planning,' which is also a near-duplicate of [5]. The table entry should be matched to the correct source or removed.
- [References [52] and [60]] References [52] and [60] are the same paper (Bazi and Melgani, 'Convolutional SVM networks for object detection in UAV imagery,' IEEE TGRS 2018). One duplicate should be removed and the in-text citations renumbered.
- [References [21] and [64]] Reference [64] duplicates reference [21] (Carrio et al., 'A review of deep learning methods and applications for unmanned aerial vehicles'); the duplicate should be removed.
- [Throughout] There are numerous typographical and consistency issues, including 'free-model RL' instead of 'model-free RL' in Section III-B, 'concurrent neural networks' instead of 'convolutional neural networks' for [39], 'te implement' in Section III-C1, and inconsistent spacing in 'UA V' throughout the text. A careful copyedit is needed.
Circularity Check
No circularity: survey makes no derivations or fitted predictions; self-citations are background only.
full rationale
This is a survey paper whose central claim (Sec. I-B) is to provide a holistic, organized overview of AI-enabled UAV networks with added coverage of federated learning and IRS-enabled UAV deployments relative to prior survey [23]. The paper fits no parameters, derives no equations from which a 'prediction' is later extracted, and does not define any input quantity in terms of its output. The only author self-citations, [12]-[16], are used in Sec. I to support background statements about UAV battery and computational limitations; they are not invoked to justify the survey's taxonomy, coverage choices, or any technical conclusion. The claimed value-added over [23] is an external, auditable comparison: the absence or presence of FL and IRS-UAV topics can be checked against the cited literature. Consequently, none of the enumerated circularity patterns applies. Technical issues noted in the text, such as the RL return formula and the model-based/model-free distinction in Sec. III-A, or reference-list inconsistencies around [118], [119], and [136], are accuracy and verifiability concerns, not circularity, and do not raise the circularity score.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are considered as one of the promising technologies for the next-generation wireless communication networks. Their mobility and their ability to establish line of sight (LOS) links with the users made them key solutions for many potential applications. In the same vein, artificial intelligence (AI) is growing rapidly nowadays and has been very successful, particularly due to the massive amount of the available data. As a result, a significant part of the research community has started to integrate intelligence at the core of UAVs networks by applying AI algorithms in solving several problems in relation to drones. In this article, we provide a comprehensive overview of some potential applications of AI in UAV-based networks. We also highlight the limits of the existing works and outline some potential future applications of AI for UAV networks.
