Assessing the Potential of AI for Spatially Sensitive Nature-Related Financial Risks

no code implementations26 Apr 2024 Steven Reece, Emma O donnell, Felicia Liu, Joanna Wolstenholme, Frida Arriaga, Giacomo Ascenzi, Richard Pywell

The two use cases also cover different sectors, geographies, financial assets and AI modelling techniques, providing an overview on how AI could be applied to different challenges relating to nature's integration into finance.

Disaster mapping from satellites: damage detection with crowdsourced point labels

no code implementations5 Nov 2021 Danil Kuzin, Olga Isupova, Brooke D. Simmons, Steven Reece

High-resolution satellite imagery available immediately after disaster events is crucial for response planning as it facilitates broad situational awareness of critical infrastructure status such as building damage, flooding, and obstructions to access routes.

Mining and Tailings Dam Detection In Satellite Imagery Using Deep Learning

1 code implementation2 Jul 2020 Remis Balaniuk, Olga Isupova, Steven Reece

This work explores the combination of free cloud computing, free open-source software, and deep learning methods to analyse a real, large-scale problem: the automatic country-wide identification and classification of surface mines and mining tailings dams in Brazil.

Bayesian Heatmaps: Probabilistic Classification with Multiple Unreliable Information Sources

1 code implementation5 Apr 2019 Edwin Simpson, Steven Reece, Stephen J. Roberts

Such applications depend on classifying the situation across a region of interest, which can be depicted as a spatial "heatmap".

BCCNet: Bayesian classifier combination neural network

no code implementations29 Nov 2018 Olga Isupova, Yunpeng Li, Danil Kuzin, Stephen J. Roberts, Katherine Willis, Steven Reece

Machine learning research for developing countries can demonstrate clear sustainable impact by delivering actionable and timely information to in-country government organisations (GOs) and NGOs in response to their critical information requirements.

Automated Machine Learning on Big Data using Stochastic Algorithm Tuning

no code implementations30 Jul 2014 Thomas Nickson, Michael A. Osborne, Steven Reece, Stephen J. Roberts

However, the state of the art in Bayesian optimisation is incapable of scaling to the large number of evaluations of algorithm performance required to fit realistic models to complex, big data.

Efficient State-Space Inference of Periodic Latent Force Models

no code implementations23 Oct 2013 Steven Reece, Stephen Roberts, Siddhartha Ghosh, Alex Rogers, Nicholas Jennings

We apply our approach to model the thermal dynamics of domestic buildings and show that it is effective at predicting day-ahead temperatures within the homes.
