QCRI develops novel Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies and computational models that address specific needs of humanitarian organizations and emergency management agencies during natural and man-made disasters. One of QCRI’s flagship projects in this area is Artificial Intelligence for Digital Response (AIDR). AIDR collects, classifies, and aggregates text messages, posts, and images on social media in real-time to increase situational awareness and support humanitarian relief efforts led by organizations such as UN OCHA.
