Abstract | The overall goal of the research presented in this paper is to develop a methodology for higher level fusion processes (situation assessment and impact prediction, STA) in a dynamic post-disaster environment. In particular, this paper addresses the problem of situation assessment to support casualty mitigation operations during the initial response phase after an earthquake. The purpose of the STA module is to infer and approximate the critical characteristics of the disaster scene in relation to the ultimate goal of the decision makers, which is to service the maximum number of the highest priority casualties with minimum service times, and further to reduce the risk of additional casualties. STA is performed by analyzing spatial and temporal relations of the casualties and casualty aggregations at different levels of granularity, and their dynamics relative to care-providers, transportation, communication and other critical resources within the overall situational context. This assessment process comprises preprocessing in which lower level fused casualty results are evaluated to see if they satisfy a certain quality criterion, dynamic hierarchical "any time" clustering, and reasoning about uncertain dynamic characteristics of aggregates, their relations, discovery of situational events and their causes, and prediction of consequence of the current situation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
