Multi-scale hydraulic graph neural networks for flood modelling by R. Bentivoglio, E. Isufi, S. N. Jonkman, R. Taormina

“…To improve generalization over unseen meshes and reduce the data demand, we use invariance principles and make the inputs independent from coordinates' rotations. Numerical results applied to dike-breach floods show that the model predicts the full spatio-temporal simulation of the flood over unseen irregular meshes, topographies, and time-varying boundary conditions, with mean absolute errors in time of 0.05 m for water depths and 0.003 m<span class="inline-formula">²</span> s<span class="inline-formula">⁻¹</span> for unit discharges. …”

Magnetic resonance imaging-based deep learning for predicting subtypes of glioma by Zhen Yang, Zhen Yang, Peng Zhang, Yi Ding, Liyi Deng, Tong Zhang, Yong Liu

“…Patients were classified into IDH-wildtype (IDHwt) (490 cases), IDH-mutant/1p19q-noncodeleted (IDHmut-intact) (105 cases), and IDH-mutant/1p19q-codeleted (IDHmut-codel) (216 cases) based on their pathological findings, with the public database of patients were divided into training and validation sets, and patients from our hospital were used as an independent test set. The models were developed based on five categories of preoperative T1-weighted, T1-weighted gadolinium contrast-enhanced, T2-weighted and T2-weighted fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (T1w, T1c, T2w and FLAIR) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of four sequences and mixed imaging of the four sequences, respectively. …”
