Machine learning applications in risk management: Trends and research agenda.

Summary: Machine learning is helping many industries manage risks better and stay safer. Because this is a fast-growing field, scientists looked at thousands of research papers to see the latest trends. They found that the number of studies almost doubled between 2018 and 2023! Countries like China, South Korea, and the United States are leading the way. Researchers are using advanced computer models to predict things like financial credit risks, the safety of city trees, and even health issues like postpartum depression and COVID-19. As technology gets smarter, moving from basic tools to advanced "deep learning," the systems we use to prevent disasters are getting much better, too.
