Using machine learning for signal processing/classification • r/MachineLearning

This semester I'll be writing my specialization project thesis, which will be about mind controlled drones. Most of the project will be processing and analyzing the signals from the sensor headset, and classifying these signals so that I can use them to control the drone. I am considering trying something a bit different than what people have been doing before on this project: I want to use reinforcement learning to teach the drone to fly the way I want. I am by no means an machine learning expert, and would like to hear what you guys think about this approach. Is there an other approach you think would work better?
