# Flight Plan Coordinate Prediction Model (Seq2SeqCoordsTransformer)
The encoder-decoder transformer model was trained for an AI flight planning project. Predicts normalized coordinates directly and waypoint count via classification.
## Model Description
Seq2SeqCoordsTransformer architecture using `torch.nn.Transformer`. Predicts normalized lat/lon coordinates autoregressively and waypoint count (0-10) via classification head on encoder output.
* Embed Dim: 256, Heads: 8, Enc Layers: 4, Dec Layers: 4, Max Waypoints: 10
## Intended Use
Research prototype. **Not for real-world navigation.**
## Limitations
Accuracy depends on data/tuning. Fixed max waypoints (10). Not certified. **Architecture differs significantly from previous versions in this repo.**
## How to Use
This requires loading the custom `Seq2SeqCoordsTransformer` class and weights. Generation requires autoregressive decoding and taking the argmax of the count logits.
