Research in Fire Engineering: Introduction to Artificial Intelligence Methods

When:  Feb 12, 2025 from 13:00 to 14:00 (ET)

Speaker:
Jonathan L. Hodges, PhD, Jensen Hughes

Join us for this upcoming webinar, Introduction to Artificial Intelligence Methods. Recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology have paved the way for innovation in technology and tools in numerous sectors. The rate at which these technologies are evolving the workflow of industry professionals in the fire protection industry is remarkable. The SFPE Foundation is hosting an AI summit in May 2025 to discuss the intersection of AI technologies and the fire protection industry. The purpose of this webinar is to provide technical background on these methods and point members to additional resources which can be used to learn more in preparation for the upcoming summit.

This presentation will start with an overview, definitions, and a brief background on AI and machine learning (ML) methods. The discussion will then move to a technical presentation on the different types of models that exist. This will include a high-level survey of the different models, examples of how the models work, and resources that attendees can use to learn more. The objective of the technical discussion is to provide an entry point for the fire protection engineer to data science and opening the black box to start the process of demystifying AI for our industry.
