Progress in Flood Risk Assessment Based on Data-Driven Methods by HE Xinyu, TIAN Wenchong, ZHANG Zhiyu, LIAO Zhenliang

“…Flood is one of the most common natural disasters in China,which has made a serious impact on China's economy and society.Flood risk assessment can help management decision makers prevent and reduce flood losses in flood-prone areas.In recent years,data-driven methods have played an increasingly important role in flood risk modeling due to their fast modeling processes and accurate spatial prediction capabilities.This paper summarizes the research progress in data-driven methods applied to flood risk assessment and divides data-driven methods into two categories,i.e.,statistical analysis and machine learning,according to their principles.Then,the characteristics and applications of the two categories are introduced,and the problems and challenges faced by the research on data-driven methods are explored.…”

Predictive role of modifiable factors in stroke: an umbrella review by Yue Wang, Lu Wen, Xiaotong Wang, Man Liang, Fanxin Zeng, Yuetian Yang, Fangfang Nie, Mengke Shang, Na Ta, Lanxin Ou, Zhibin Yang, Wanyang Liu

“…Excess significance test was used to investigate whether the observed number of studies (O) with nominally significant results (‘positive’ studies, p<0.05) was larger than the expected number of significant results (E). Statistically significant (p<0.05) associations were rated into five levels (strong, highly suggestive, suggestive, weak and no) using specific criteria. …”
