Can Machine Learning Help Tackle Climate Change?
Machine learning can help tackle climate change by looking at data to spot patterns and trends that are not recognisable to the human eye or are not practical for humans to monitor. For example, machine learning models enable automatic and continuous monitoring of global imagery to identify wildfires, landslides, and other visible phenomena using pattern and image recognition. Reinforcement learning allows the models to become increasingly accurate in identifying changes and hazards. These can then be identified and evaluated by an expert and forwarded to the relevant authority for mitigation.
