This review paper focuses on the use of ensemble neural networks (ENN) in the development of storm surge flood models. Storm surges are a major concern in coastal regions, and accurate flood modeling is essential for effective disaster management. Neural network (NN) ensembles have shown great potential in improving the accuracy and reliability of such models. This paper presents an overview of the latest research on the application of NNs in storm surge flood modeling and covers the principles and concepts of ENNs, various ensemble architectures, the main challenges associated with NN ensemble algorithms, and their potential benefits in improving flood forecasting accuracy. The main part of this paper pertains to the techniques used to combine a mixed set of predictions from multiple NN models. The combination of these models can lead to improved accuracy, robustness, and generalization performance compared to using a single model. However, generating neural network ensembles also requires careful consideration of the trade-offs between model diversity, model complexity, and computational resources. The ensemble must balance these factors to achieve the best performance. The insights presented in this review paper are particularly relevant for researchers and practitioners working in coastal regions where accurate storm surge flood modeling is critical.
