| Research Institution | Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IIT Guwahati) |
| Study Focus | Predictive framework for glacial lake formation and Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs) in the Eastern Himalayas |
| Methodology | Used high-resolution satellite imagery (Google Earth) and digital elevation models (DEMs) to analyze terrain features (slope, surface shape, cirques, neighboring lakes) |
| Predictive Models Used | Logistic Regression (LR), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Bayesian Neural Networks (BNN) - BNN was most accurate due to handling uncertainty |
| Significance | Helps in disaster preparedness, infrastructure planning (roads, hydropower), and settlement safety in Himalayan regions |
