Researchers have developed a CNN-based deep learning model for predicting coastal flooding in cities under various sea-level rise scenarios. The model utilizes a vision-based, low-resource DL framework and is trained on datasets from Abu Dhabi and San Francisco. Results show a 20% reduction in mean absolute error compared to existing methods, demonstrating potential for scalable coastal flood management.
This paper introduces a deep vision-based framework for predicting coastal floods under climate change, addressing the challenges of limited training data and high-dimensional output. The framework employs and compares various deep learning models, including a custom compact CNN architecture, against geostatistical and traditional machine learning methods. A new synthetic dataset of flood inundation maps for Abu Dhabi's coast is also provided to benchmark future models.
Researchers introduce Arabic Mini-ClimateGPT, a tailored Arabic LLM for climate change and sustainability. The model is fine-tuned on the Clima500-Instruct dataset and uses vector embedding retrieval during inference. Evaluations show the model outperforms baseline LLMs and is preferred by experts in 81.6% of cases.
