Prediction of Civilians Killing in the Upcoming Drone Attack

摘要

Terrorism, is use of violence systematic and unlawfully. After the attack on World trade Center on 9th November 2001, Pentagon decided to launch fight against terrorism operations in Afghanistan. The operation started in Afghanistan in 2001 and then with the passage of time the scope of operation was increased to northwest part of Pakistan. Remarkable results have been achieved with this technology but there are also some disadvantages of this technology. The negative impact of using the drone technology is that civilians are also affected by the strikes. First drone attack happened in Waziristan in November 2004, which resulted in the killing of militant's commander, and his companions with civilians were martyred. To minimize the deaths of such local innocent civilians different predictive systems for finding the location and time of next drone strike have been created by the researchers.In this research paper we have designed a predictive system using neural network that how many civilians will be affected by the next drone strike. This system has been designed on the basis of the available data about the drone strikes in Pakistan. Realistic results have been achieved and we are hopeful that this system can save some innocent lives.
