Urban pluvial flooding prediction by machine learning approaches – a case study of Shenzhen city, China

Urban pluvial flooding is a threatening natural hazard in urban areas all over the world, especially in recent years given its increasing frequency of occurrence. In order to prevent flood occurrence and mitigate the subsequent aftermath, urban water managers aim to predict precipitation characteristics, including peak intensity, arrival time...

Automatic high-resolution microseismic event detection via supervised machine learning

Microseismic methods are crucial for real-Time monitoring of the hydraulic fracturing dynamic status during the development of unconventional reservoirs. However, unlike the active-source seismic events, the microseismic events usually have low signal-To-noise ratio (SNR), which makes its data processing challenging. To overcome the noise...
