Facility Detection and Popularity Assessment from Text Classification of Social Media and Crowdsourced Data

Conference Sparks, Kevin ; Li, Roger ; Thakur, Gautam Malviya ; ...

Advances in technology have continually progressed our understanding of where people are, how they use the environment around them, and why they are at their current location. Having a better knowledge of when various locations become popular through space and time could have large impacts on research fields like urban dynamics and energy consumption. In this paper, we discuss the ability to identify and locate various facility types (e.g. restaurant, airport, stadiums) using social media, and assess methods in determining when these facilities become popular over time. We use natural language processing tools and machine learning classifiers to interpret geotaggedmore »« less

Examining Rail Transportation Route of Crude Oil in the United States Using Crowdsourced Social Media Data

Journal Article Liu, Yuandong ; Uddin, Majbah ; Chin, Shih-Miao ; ... - Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board

Safety issues associated with transporting crude oil by rail have been a concern since the boom of the U.S. domestic shale oil production in 2012. During the last decade, over 300 crude-oil-by-rail incidents have occurred in the United States. Some of them have caused adverse consequences including fire and hazardous materials leakage. However, only limited information on crude-on-rail routes and their associated risks is available to the public. To this end, this study proposed an unconventional way to reconstruct crude-on-rail routes using geotagged photos harvested from the Flickr website. The proposed method linked the geotagged photos of crude oil trainsmore »« less

Crowdsourcing Global Perspectives in Ecology Using Social Media

Journal Article Graham, Emily B. ; Smith, A. Peyton - Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution

Transparent, open, and reproducible research is still far from routine, and the full potential of open science has not yet been realized. Crowdsourcing–defined as the usage of a flexible open call to a heterogeneous group of individuals to recruit volunteers for a task –is an emerging scientific model that encourages larger and more outwardly transparent collaborations. While crowdsourcing, particularly through citizen- or community-based science, has been increasing over the last decade in ecological research, it remains infrequently used as a means of generating scientific knowledge in comparison to more traditional approaches. We explored a new implementation of crowdsourcing by usingmore »« less

AI-Improved Resolution Projections of Population Characteristics and Imperviousness Can Improve Resolution and Accuracy of Urban Flood Predictions

Technical Report Brelsford, Christa ; Krapu, Chris ; Tuccillo, Joe ; ...

Focal Area: (2) Predictive modeling through the use of AI techniques and AI-derived model components. Specifically, we call for the use of deep generative models from ML for providing high-resolution projections of impervious surface area, as well as neural network solvers for fast approximation of urban hydrodynamics to provide greatly enhanced forecasts of future urban flood dynamics.
