Food security prediction from heterogeneous data combining machine and deep learning methods

作者:

Highlights:

• The analysis of Food Security related phenomena poses several research challenges.

• We focus on the Food Consumption Score and Household Dietary Diversity Score indicators.

• We propose the FSPHD machine learning framework for the prediction of such indicators.

• We use a large set of input data heterogeneous in terms of format and domain.

• The results show promising performances that outperform competing methods.
