Current flood management models are often hampered by the lack of robust predictive analytics, as well as incomplete datasets for river basins prone to heavy flooding. This research uses a State-of-the-Art matrix (SAM) analysis and integrative literature review to categorize existing models by method and scope, then determines opportunities for integrating deep learning techniques to expand predictive capability. Trends in the SAM analysis are then used to determine geospatial characteristics of the region that can contribute to flash flood scenarios, as well as develop inputs for future modeling efforts. Preliminary progress on the selection of one urban and one rural …

While machine learning is revolutionizing every corner of modern technologies, we have been attempting to explore whether machine learning methods could be used in computational electromagnetic (CEM). In this paper, five efforts in line with this direction are reviewed. They include forward methods such as the method of moments (MoM) solved by the artificial neural network training process, FDTD PML (perfectly matched layer) using the hyperbolic tangent basis function (HTBF), etc. There are also inverse problems that use the deep ConvNets for the effective source reconstruction and subwavelength imaging in the far-field. Benchmarks are provided to demonstrate the feasibility of …
