用社区参与设计火灾风险评估工具,提升透明度与可信度。
Community-Led AI Integration for Wildfire Risk Assessment: A Participatory AI Literacy and Explainability Integration (PALEI) Framework in Los Angeles, CA
- 通过用户共建框架,将本地化信息融入AI模型设计
- 居民对可视化、具象化风险提示接受度高,信任感增强
- 适合气候灾害应对、公共政策制定者参考
气候变化驱动的野火正加剧,尤其在南加州等城市区域。传统火灾风险沟通工具因设计晦涩、输出不透明、缺乏情境相关性,难以获得公众信任,高风险社区尤为突出。本文提出参与式人工智能素养与可解释性整合(PALEI)框架,强调在部署预测模型前开展早期素养培育、价值对齐与共同评估,注重清晰性、可及性与开发者与居民间的互学机制。初步调研显示,居民高度认可可视化、情境化风险传达,对公平性评价积极,有明确采纳意愿,但隐私与数据安全仍影响信任。参与者强调需使用本地图像、易懂解释、邻里定制的减灾建议以及不确定性透明说明。最终产出一款与用户和利益相关方共同设计的移动应用,支持居民扫描房屋特征,获取可解释的风险评分与个性化建议。通过嵌入本地语境,该工具成为日常风险意识与准备的实用资源。研究主张用户体验是伦理有效AI部署的核心,并提供可复制的‘素养先行’路径,适用于气候相关灾害应对。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Climate-driven wildfires are intensifying, particularly in urban regions such as Southern California. Yet, traditional fire risk communication tools often fail to gain public trust due to inaccessible design, non-transparent outputs, and limited contextual relevance. These challenges are especially critical in high-risk communities, where trust depends on how clearly and locally information is presented. Neighborhoods such as Pacific Palisades, Pasadena, and Altadena in Los Angeles exemplify these conditions. This study introduces a community-led approach for integrating AI into wildfire risk assessment using the Participatory AI Literacy and Explainability Integration (PALEI) framework. PALEI emphasizes early literacy building, value alignment, and participatory evaluation before deploying predictive models, prioritizing clarity, accessibility, and mutual learning between developers and residents. Early engagement findings show strong acceptance of visual, context-specific risk communication, positive fairness perceptions, and clear adoption interest, alongside privacy and data security concerns that influence trust. Participants emphasized localized imagery, accessible explanations, neighborhood-specific mitigation guidance, and transparent communication of uncertainty. The outcome is a mobile application co-designed with users and stakeholders, enabling residents to scan visible property features and receive interpretable fire risk scores with tailored recommendations. By embedding local context into design, the tool becomes an everyday resource for risk awareness and preparedness. This study argues that user experience is central to ethical and effective AI deployment and provides a replicable, literacy-first pathway for applying the PALEI framework to climate-related hazards.
