Our proposed novel DeepC4, a deep constrained clustering model, advances the existing classical spatial disaggregation techniques using deep learning and EO data to understand the distribution of various urban morphology characteristics at large scales, ...

and physical vulnerability, regionally, given the vast amount of Earth Observation (EO) data and advanced machine learning (ML) techniques like spatiotemporal graph deep learning and Bayesian ML? That's what I will share high-level in our AI4ER CDT Showcase, including ...

When I began my journey in disaster risk science, it was fascinating to understand the mathematics behind probabilistic (seismic, tsunami, flood, blast, wildfire, etc.) hazard analysis. What if, in our risk equation, there's also probabilistic distribution of building exposure ...

And, that's it! 4 hrs! #AGU24

Very thankful to our visitors who gave encouraging words on our proposed algorithm, have already expressed their intention in reading our preprint, & shared the same perspectives how AI should reasonably be used in DRR practice. Love y'all! ❤️

Applying AI 💻 & EO 🛰️ to exposure & vulnerability modelling, as my mentors also say, is indeed a "messy" one, yet it's widely recognized as a serious "data gap" in #DRR 🌍. Here's an online copy of our "very large" poster! 😄
