Bruno Adriano is an associate professor at the International Research Institute of Disaster Science (IRIDeS) at Tohoku University and a concurrent associate professor at the Graduate School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Tohoku University. He is also a visiting research scientist with the Geoinformatics Team at the RIKEN Center for Advanced Intelligence Project (AIP).
His research focuses on developing intelligent systems that analyze the complex physical characteristics and impacts of disasters, such as earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, and landslides, using multimodal observations and physics-based simulations. Situated at the intersection of remote sensing, machine learning, and numerical modeling, he develops data-driven methods that integrate computer vision, machine learning, and data fusion to produce actionable, scalable information for disaster response and planning.
