* Overview:* The integration of machine learning (ML) with networked drone
and sensor technologies is revolutionizing multiple sectors. This
convergence allows drones and sensors equipped with ML algorithms to
process vast amounts of data, enhancing autonomous and intelligent
operations within interconnected systems. Although this integration drives
innovation and efficiency in fields such as agriculture, environmental
monitoring, and disaster response, challenges remain, including longer
processing times and a lack of standardized integration. These issues,
along with the need for distributed processing and coordinated
decision-making, highlight the necessity for further advancements to fully
unlock the potential of these technologies. Quantum technology represents a
promising frontier for addressing these challenges, particularly concerning
the computational, communication, and security demands of networked
systems. With growing interest from both research and industry communities,
the *DroneSense-AI *workshop seeks to explore and inspire novel ways in
which ML can optimize and expand the capabilities of networked drones and
sensors. We invite submissions addressing innovations, challenges, and
future directions in ML-driven networked drone and sensor systems.
DroneSense-AI welcomes original contributions on all aspects of AI
applications within this rapidly evolving field.

Accepted papers *will be included in the conference proceeding published in
the IEEE Xplore Digital Library*, showing their affiliation with IEEE
WoWMoM.
