Abstract: ABSTRACT METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DISASTER EVENT ANALYSIS AND PREDICTION When it comes to disaster event analysis and prediction, one modality of data which is often overlooked in research is news. Current research uses NLP mod-ules to process the news stream, this approach has the disadvantage that the new articles, being from different sources, may have less reliability, and hence the inference and prediction that is generated from this data may not be entirely reli- able. In the method and system disclosed herein, for the disaster event analysis and prediction, a first severity information is generated from text input data from various sources, and a second severity information is generated from image data. The first severity information and the second severity information are fused to generate a combined severity information represents a predicted severity of a disaster event, by performing a decision level fusion of the first severity infor-mation and the second severity information.
