Fire Risk Assessment Models Using Statistical Machine Learning and Optimized Risk Indexing

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
It is very difficult for us to accurately predict occurrence of a fire. But, this is very important to protect human life and property. So, we study fire hazard prediction and evaluation methods to cope with fire risks.

Patterns of flammability after a sequence of mixed‐severity wildfire in dry eucalypt forests of southern Australia

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Fire severity is the impact of a fire on the landscape, particularly the physical impact on vegetation. Previous studies have established that the severity of a fire can be influenced by the severity of previous fires.
