Abstract
Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have significantly enhanced fire risk assessment by enabling predictive analytics, real-time decision support, and optimized emergency response. Accurate fire risk assessments are crucial for prioritizing high-risk zones and optimizing resource deployment to minimize damage and enhance safety. In this work, we introduce novel fire risk models and propose a comprehensive ML-based framework for fire risk prediction that supports data-driven decision-making for fire and emergency response services. Our models incorporate response performance and service proximity to assess the impact of incidents more effectively within a city. The proposed framework provides an end-to-end ML pipeline that integrates diverse data sources to construct a dataset, compute risk scores, analyze key features, and formulate fire risk prediction as a regression problem. Additionally, it evaluates multiple regression models to analyze risk variations at both the incident and neighborhood levels. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed models achieve a high degree of alignment between predicted and actual risk scores with minimal error. This framework captures valuable spatial risk patterns and can be used as a reliable tool for fire risk assessment, resource allocation, response strategy improvement, and urban safety planning.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
