(Summary) 人工知能が人間の知能を超える技術的特異点（technological singularity）を控え、多様な自然災害に関連した原始データと非構造化データを収集・分析し、不確実性の時代に近づく国家的危機を早期に検出して対応する必要がある。本セミナーでは、ビッグデータの時代とIoTを包む知能情報通信に基づいた科学的な災害安全と危機管理の方法を模索する。 In the face of the technological singularity that artificial intelligence goes beyond human intelligence, it is necessary to detect and respond at an early stage to national crises as soon as they during times of uncertainty. Doing so requires collecting and analyzing unstructured and source data related to various natural disasters. In this seminar, we will explore the scientific management of disasters and crises based on intelligence information communication systems that are comprised of big data and IoT.
(Purpose) 本セミナーが追求する自然災害の危険診断や予測モデルの開発及び土台に関する議論は、関わっている分野で進めているソリューションやシステムの開発に効果的で論理的な判断根拠を提示することができる。本セミナーを通じて。多量の知能情報データやアルゴリズムに基づいて、国家的な災害危機を予測して管理する時代の組織になろうとする。 Discussion on the development and foundations of a natural disaster risk assessment and prediction model, which this seminar pursues, provides an effective and logical basis to development of solutions and systems that relevant area is advancing. This seminar aims to become a cornerstone of the era when national disaster risks are predicted and managed based on a large amount of intelligent information data and its algorithms.
