Deep Learning Assist IoT Search Engine for Disaster Damage Assessment

ABSTRACT In this paper, we address the issue of disaster damage assessments using deep learning (DL) techniques. Specifically, we propose integrating DL techniques into the Internet of Things Search Engine (IoTSE) system to carry out disaster damage assessment. Our approach is to design two scenarios, Single and Complex Event Settings, to complete performance validation using four Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models. These two scenarios are designed with three possible network services. Our experimental results confirm that all four CNN models can learn each label during the single event setting well. Whereas, with complex event settings, the CNN models have learning difficulty because multiple events have closely related labels.
