Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Big-data and artificial intelligence techniques have affected several decision-making processes. Among them, it is worth investigating further the safety-related aspects of industrial areas through data-driven approaches to advance risk assessment.
Hence, this Special Issue aims at collecting powerful evidence of new methods and datasets in the field of industrial safety and environmental risks related to industrial processes, specifically through data mining techniques and big data.
In more detail, this Special Issue welcomes original research articles, dataset descriptors, communications, and systematic reviews. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Industrial accidents and lessons learned;
- The FAIRness of safety reports and data;
- Data-driven approaches to occupational risks;
- The analysis of safety reports for risk assessment;
- The environmental risks in industrial sites;
- The digitalization to assess the occupational and environmental safety of industrial processes.
