Session: AI for Disaster response
When disaster strikes, humanitarian organizations and local communities need to coordinate efforts to bring quick help to affected populations. Two AI in Disaster response case studies will be presented in aiding affected people and frontline relief workers. First is the use of AI to predict the affected population so that humanitarian aid can be expedited and more effective. This solution has the potential to help multiple groups of people dealing with emergencies and can expand to other disaster types. The second use case is devising safe paths to identify the best routes to travel to safety in the aftermath of an earthquake. And allowing rescuers to distribute emergency aid more effectively and identify those still in danger and isolated from escape routes.Key Takeaways
- how can you use AI for social impact.
- Combination of Analytics, Machine Learning Models, Natural Lanuage Processing, Streamlit Deployment.
- Designing for human aid, consideration of Relief agencies and the Casualties
