## Notes
<a name="datascience">Data science</a>: largely regarded as a blend of various tools, mathematical models, algorithms, Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques that aim to discover patterns, correlations and relationships from data. The different “categories” of data science are not definitive, nor universally agreed on, which is why we use the expression “data science” to try and avoid excluding anything. Similar initiatives to this project are the [UN OCHA Catalogue Of Predictive Models In The Humanitarian Sector](https://centre.humdata.org/catalogue-for-predictive-models-in-the-humanitarian-sector/), the [UN Global Pulse’s microsites repository](https://www.unglobalpulse.org/our-work/), the [NetHope Solutions Center Webinar Series](https://solutionscenter.nethope.org/webinars-and-events), the products from the [ITU Focus Group on AI for Natural Disaster Management](https://www.itu.int/en/ITU-T/focusgroups/ai4ndm/Pages/default.aspx). A relevant associated academic venue is the [Artificial Intelligence for Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Response Workshop](https://www.hadr.ai/).
