Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)
This project explores the use of deep learning models to map homeless encampments in Eureka, CA, with a particular focus on areas within flood zones that may potentially impact the coastal ecosystem of Humboldt Bay. The project critically examines the ethical implications of using artificial intelligence in this context, particularly with respect to the privacy and dignity of homeless individuals. The study balances technological advancements in geospatial data analysis with the need for responsible and humane applications of AI, ensuring that the potential environmental impacts of encampments are addressed without stigmatizing vulnerable communities.
