Aircraft noise pollution poses a significant challenge to communities near airports, impacting their health, well-being, and overall quality of life. Traditional noise mitigation approaches have predominantly focused on physical modifications to aircraft design and flight procedures. However, the emergence of machine learning (ML) techniques offers promising avenues for innovative noise reduction strategies. This paper introduces “Silent Skies,” a groundbreaking framework utilizing machine learning algorithms to address aircraft noise. Silent Skies integrates diverse data sources, including aircraft telemetry, weather conditions, airport infrastructure, and community feedback, to train predictive models for accurately estimating noise levels. These models inform decision-making processes, optimizing flight paths, engine settings, and airport operations to minimize noise emissions. Key components of the Silent Skies framework include data preprocessing techniques for handling heterogeneous and noisy data, feature engineering methods for extracting relevant information from raw data sources, and ensemble learning approaches to enhance prediction accuracy. Additionally, the framework incorporates real-time monitoring and feedback mechanisms to continually refine noise reduction strategies in response to evolving conditions. To demonstrate the effectiveness of Silent Skies, we present case studies conducted at major airports, showcasing significant reductions in noise pollution while maintaining operational efficiency. These case studies underscore the framework's adaptability across diverse airport configurations, airspace constraints, and environmental contexts. In summary, Silent Skies represents a significant advancement in aircraft noise mitigation, offering scalable and adaptive solutions that prioritize community well-being without compromising aviation safety or efficiency. Through the integration of machine learning techniques, airports can transition towards quieter skies, fostering sustainable coexistence between aviation and the communities they serve.
