Naslov: HIDRA - a deep model for accurate coastal flood prediction

Povzetek predavanja: 

Climate change is exponentially intensifying extreme coastal floods, which devastate local communities and economies. These events are anticipated to intensify in future, thus there is a pressing need to develop early warning systems to mitigate the damages. I will present the HIDRA family of deep neural networks designed by an interdisciplinary team of computer vision experts and geophysicists. HIDRA is the first machine-learning method that outperforms the best geophysics sea surface height prediction model, it is half a million times faster and predicts the sea surface height for 3 days ahead with competitive accuracy. HIDRA is already used in daily prognosis by the Slovenian Environment Agency and has been integrated into the ECMWF (European Centre for M
