Probabilistic prediction of daily fire occurrence in the Mediterranean with readily available spatio-temporal data

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2017
The prediction of wildfire occurrence is an important component of fire management. We have developed probabilistic daily fire prediction models for a Mediterranean region of Europe (Cyprus) at the mesoscale, based on Poisson regression.

Risk Structures: Towards Engineering Risk-aware Autonomous Systems [PDF]

open access: yesFormal Aspects Comput. 33 (4-5), pp. 763-802, 2021, 2019
Inspired by widely-used techniques of causal modelling in risk, failure, and accident analysis, this work discusses a compositional framework for risk modelling. Risk models capture fragments of the space of risky events likely to occur when operating a machine in a given environment. Moreover, one can build such models into machines such as autonomous

Quantifying the effectiveness of early warning systems for natural hazards [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2016
Early warning systems (EWSs) are increasingly applied as preventive measures within an integrated risk management approach for natural hazards. At present, common standards and detailed guidelines for the evaluation of their effectiveness are lacking. To

Analyzing and Calibrating Risk Assessment by Software Developers [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
In software project management, risk management is a critical factor. Project managers use existing lists of risk or perform brainstorming to identify the risks. However, it is not easy to perceive all the risks objectively. As a result, some risks are perceived based on subjective impression, which leads to risk biases.
