  1. 21. Modelling of Capital Requirements using LSTM and A-SA in CRR 3

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Författare :William Gan; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Capital Requirements; machine learning; neural networks; financial mathematics; risk management; CRR 3; FRTB; Kapitalkrav; maskininlärning; neurala nätverk; finansiell matematik; riskhantering; CRR 3; FRTB;

    Sammanfattning : In response to the Great Financial Crisis of 2008, a handful of measures were taken to increase the resilience toward a similar disaster in the future. Global financial regulatory entities implemented several new directives with the intention to enhance global capital markets, leading to regulatory frameworks where financial participants (FPs) are regulated with own fund's requirements for market risks.

  3. 22. Regional Cross-border Disaster Collaboration: A Joint Standard Operating Procedure between Jordan Israel and Palestine

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Författare :Nadia Rinaldi; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Regional Cooperation; Disaster Preparedness; Standard Operating Procedure; Disaster Risk Management; Middle East; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This case study research aims to identify the enabling factors and challenges for developing a joint Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Disaster Response Preparedness between Jordan, Israel and Palestine. Twelve qualitative semi-structured interviews were conducted with experts either involved in the SOP project, the region and/or with extensive experience in developing cross-border SOPs. LÄS MER

  4. 23. DISASTER RISK REDUCTION AND RESPONSE IN CONFLICT-AFFECTED CONTEXTS : How armed conflict affects disaster risk reduction (DRR) and disaster response, and what explains within conflict variations?

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning

    Författare :Marijana Markotic; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Disaster risk reduction; disaster relief; civil war; Nepal;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis w attempts to contribute to the identified gap in the disaster-conflict literature and posits the following research question: How does armed conflict affect DRR and disaster response, and what explains within conflict variations? Past research revealed that there is significant variation in types of rebel groups, which has significant consequences for disaster management. More nuanced approaches are needed in studying wartime political orders to scrutinize the dynamics of armed conflict and to assess the feasibility of DRR and relief interventions in different contexts.

  5. 24. An evaluation of deep learning models for urban floods forecasting

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Geoinformatik

    Författare :Yang Mu; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Urban flooding forecasting; Convolutional neural networks; Deep learning; Physically-based simulation; Recurrent neural network; Stadsöversvämningsprognoser; konvolutionella neurala nätverk; djupinlärning; fysiskt baserad simulering; återkommande neurala nätverk;

    Sammanfattning : Flood forecasting maps are essential for rapid disaster response and risk management, yet the computational complexity of physically-based simulations hinders their application for efficient high-resolution spatial flood forecasting. To address the problems of high computational cost and long prediction time, this thesis proposes to develop deep learning neural networks based on a flood simulation dataset, and explore their potential use for flood prediction without learning hydrological modelling knowledge from scratch.

  7. 25. Disaster Risk Reduction and Management in Metro Manila, Philippines : Case Study of the 2020 Typhoons: Quinta, Rolly and Ulysses

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Sara Ellinor Granström; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Disaster risk reduction and management; Philippines; Metro Manila; typhoons; tropical cyclones; loss and damage; transformation as liberation; Reducering och hantering av katastrofrisker; Filippinerna; Metro Manila; tyfoner; tropiska cykloner; förlust och skada; förändring som befrielse;

    Sammanfattning : The Philippines is considered one of the most vulnerable countries in the world to climate disasters due to a combination of its geospatial, political, economic, and social attributes. The nation gets hit with an average of 20 annual tropical cyclones, also known as typhoons, and through the process of climate change, these events are only growing in both frequency and magnitude.
