AI is employed in emergency management to enhance disaster response and preparedness. It leverages data analytics, machine learning, and predictive modeling to analyze patterns, identify risks, and assist in decision-making, enabling faster and more effective emergency responses and resource allocation.
Researchers demonstrated that machine learning (ML) models significantly enhance seismic vulnerability assessments within rapid visual screening (RVS) frameworks. By training binary classifiers and applying ML feature attribution techniques, the study showed that ML models outperform traditional engineering practices, offering a more accurate method for ranking structures by seismic vulnerability.
Researchers have introduced the human behavior detection dataset (HBDset) for computer vision applications in emergency evacuations, focusing on vulnerable groups like the elderly and disabled.
Researchers proposed the VGGT-Count model to forecast crowd density in highly aggregated tourist crowds, aiming to improve monitoring accuracy and enable real-time alerts. Through a fusion of VGG-19 and transformer-based encoding, the model achieved precise predictions, offering practical solutions for crowd management and enhancing safety in tourist destinations.
This article delves into the assessment of flood susceptibility in Australian tropical cyclone-prone regions, focusing on the impact of tropical cyclone Debbie in 2017. Researchers employ a Random Forest (RF) machine learning model, optimized by differential evolution, and satellite remote sensing data to create a flood hazard map for the Airlie Beach, Mackay, and Bowen regions in North Queensland.
Technology experts convened at Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Department of Energy for the Trillion-Pixel GeoAI Challenge workshop to discuss the future of geospatial systems. The event emphasized advancements in artificial intelligence, cloud infrastructure, high-performance computing, and remote sensing, highlighting their potential in addressing national and human security concerns like disaster response and land-use planning.
Researchers propose a visual analytics pipeline that leverages citizen volunteered geographic information (VGI) from social media to enhance impact-based weather warning systems. By combining text and image analysis, machine learning, and interactive visualization, they aim to detect and explore extreme weather events with greater accuracy and provide valuable localized information for disaster management and resilience planning.
