We are looking for a research assistant to work on survey design and analysis. For more details, see the Jobs page.
Our work on "Open, Contingent, Adaptive and Reactive Resilience" will be presented at the 16th Social Simulation Conference (SSC-2021).
Existing governance measures for ensuring resilience in society are struggling to deal with compound risks such as extreme climate change events during pandemics. We argue that resilience governance systems can benefit from technological advancements in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI has the capacity to support resilience governance to be geared towards anticipatory action as a means to increase resilience in society. The ARGOS project focuses on AI-assisted Resilience Governance Systems and aims to investigate the applicability of machine learning methods to support anticipatory planning for resilience, simulation-based AI techniques for policy appraisal in view of compound risks, and AI-based coordination mechanisms for resilience-aware decision making.
ARGOS is a Pump-Priming project supported by UKRI's Hub on Trustworthy Autonomous Systems (The TAS Hub).
