Frontiers in Environmental Science 17 frontiersin.org Paramanik et al. 10.3389/fenvs.2026.1729457 More dynamic models that account for changes in land use patterns could provide more accurate predictions. Additionally, this study does not critically incorporate socioeconomic factors in flood risk management. Factors such as population growth, urbanization, and infrastructure development could significantly influence flood susceptibility but were not explicitly considered this assessment. Future studies should aim to integrate socioeconomic projections with climate and environmental data to offer a more holistic view of flood risks. in 4.4 Limitations in machine learning-based flood risk evaluation and policy consequences Although there is considerable progress, machine learning algorithms for flood as well as landslide vulnerability continue to encounter substantial limits concerning data quality along with model generalizability. Class imbalance as well as biased training datasets frequently result in skewed predictions, wherein non-event conditions predominate, thereby diminishing model reliability and obstructing precise risk identification in future climate scenarios, particularly when conditioning parameters are selected inconsistently across areas (e.g., topography, climate variables), which limits transferability and extrapolation efficacy. The dependency on historical as well as remote sensing datasets, devoid of substantial real-time inputs, constrains operational prediction capabilities, as numerous places lack the continuous high-resolution imagery and hydrological observation infrastructure necessary for dynamic prediction (Han and Semnani, 2025). Third, the ability to interpret of intricate deep learning models poses a barrier; although achieving great accuracy, their “black-box” characteristics diminish transparency and hinder stakeholders’ comprehension of the physical links between predictors and dangers. Ultimately, the majority of current assessments incidents or certain study regions, concentrate on singular prompting apprehensions regarding the ability of trained models to consistently generalize to novel flood or landslide scenarios across varied geographies or in response to changing climate conditions. among emphasize framework.
