Direct Policy Search for a Risk‐Based Levee Design Framework With Scenario Reduction
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT Risk‐based management of coastal flood risk using realistic, process‐based models poses computational challenges, particularly when addressing uncertainties like sea‐level rise. This study explores the use of direct policy search (DPS) as a state‐dependent, adaptive decision‐making approach for upgrading levee systems.
