1. An apparatus, comprising:
a seatbelt detection system that detects seatbelt use in each seat of a passenger aircraft; and
a computer system communicatively coupled to the seatbelt detection system and configured to:
receive data from a plurality of sensors in an aircraft cabin; and
employ an artificial intelligence (AI) program to train on data comprising at least one of safety compliance data, aircraft system data, cabin environment data, cabin operations data, or aircraft operations data; the AI program being configured for minimizing a summed error of predictions of seatbelt compliance.
