Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Floods are one of the world's most damaging and dangerous natural hazards. Jonkman (2005) estimated that, in the last decade of the twentieth century, fluvial and other drainage-related floods killed 100 000 and affected 1.4 billion people. Economic losses from floods are difficult to estimate precisely, but are large and increasing. Barredo (2009) estimated annual average losses for Europe to be $3.8 billion over the period 1970–2006 (at 2006 values), and UNESCO (2009) noted that losses from extreme events rose 10-fold between the 1950s and 1990s in real terms. Flood protection and flood management are therefore seen as important issues by society, and associated infrastructure and management systems represent large and ongoing investment (in the UK, annual expenditure on flood defence is of the order of £800 million).

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
