Disaster Monitoring using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Deep Learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Monitoring of disasters is crucial for mitigating their effects on the environment and human population, and can be facilitated by the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), equipped with camera sensors that produce aerial photos of the areas of interest. A modern technique for recognition of events based on aerial photos is deep learning.

Resilience for Landslide Geohazards and Promoting Strategies in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Recently, resilience is increasingly used as a concept for understanding natural disaster systems. Landslide is one of the most frequent geohazards in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area (TGRA).However, it is difficult to measure local disaster resilience, because of special geographical location in the TGRA and the special disaster landslide.
