Due to climate change the frequency and intensity of extreme rainfall events, which contribute to urban flooding, are expected to increase in many places. These floods can damage transport infrastructure and disrupt mobility, highlighting the need for cities to adapt to escalating risks. Reinforcement learning (RL) serves as a powerful tool for uncovering optimal adaptation strategies, determining how and where to deploy adaptation measures effectively, even under significant uncertainty. In this study, we leverage RL to identify the most effective timing and locations for implementing measures, aiming to reduce both direct and indirect impacts of flooding. Our framework integrates climate change projections of future rainfall events and floods, models city-wide motorized trips, and quantifies direct and indirect impacts on infrastructure and mobility. Preliminary results suggest that our RL-based approach can significantly enhance decision-making by prioritizing interventions in specific urban areas and identifying the optimal periods for their implementation.

Many networks, such as transportation, power, and water distribution, can be represented as graphs. Crucial challenge in graph representations is identifying the importance of graph edges and their influence on overall network efficiency and information flow performance. For example, important edges in a transportation network are those roads that, when affected, will significantly alter the network's overall efficiency. Commonly used approach to finding such important edges is ``edge betweenness centrality'' (EBC), an edge ranking measure to determine the influential edges of the graph based on connectivity and information spread. Computing the EBC utilizing the common Brandes algorithm involves calculating the shortest paths for every node pair, which can be computationally expensive and restrictive, especially for large graphs. Changes in the graph parameters, e.g., in the edge weight or the addition and deletion of nodes or edges, require the recalculation of the EBC. As the main contribution, we propose an approximate method to estimate the EBC using a Graph Neural Network (GNN), a deep learning-based approach. We show that it is computationally efficient compared to the conventional method, especially for large graphs. The proposed method of GNN-based edge ranking is evaluated on several synthetic graphs and a real-world transportation data set. We show that this framework can estimate the approximate edge ranking much faster compared to the conventional method. This approach is inductive, i.e., training and testing are performed on different sets of graphs with varying numbers of nodes and edges. The proposed method is especially suitable for applications on large-scale networks when edge information is desired, for example, in urban infrastructure improvement projects, power, and water network resilience analyses, and optimizing resource allocations in engineering networks.
