Emergency Resource Allocation for Disaster Response: An Evolutionary Approach
The efficient response to a disaster plays an important role in decreasing its impact on affected victims. In some cases, the high volume of potential casualties as well as the urgency of a fast response increase the complexity of the disaster response mission. Such cases have created a need for developing an effective and efficient disaster response strategy. This paper focuses on developing a...
متن کاملAlert based disaster notification and resource allocation
When a disaster occurs, timely actions in response to urgent requests conveyed by critical messages (known as alerts) constitute a vital key to effectiveness. These actions include notifying potentially affected parties so that they can take precautionary measures, gathering additional information, and requesting remedial actions and resource allocation. However, there are different types of di...

متن کاملDynamic Resource Allocation in Disaster Response: Tradeoffs in Wildfire Suppression
Challenges associated with the allocation of limited resources to mitigate the impact of natural disasters inspire fundamentally new theoretical questions for dynamic decision making in coupled human and natural systems. Wildfires are one of several types of disaster phenomena, including oil spills and disease epidemics, where (1) the disaster evolves on the same timescale as the response effor...
متن کاملLearning-Enhanced Market-Based Task Allocation for Disaster Response
In this work we propose a market-based task allocation system for disaster response domains. We model the disaster response domain as a team of robots cooperating to extinguish a series of fires that arise due to a disaster. Each fire is associated with a time-decreasing reward for successful mitigation, with the value of the initial reward corresponding to task importance, and the speed of dec...
