Weather4cast again advanced modern algorithms in AI and machine learning through a highly topical interdisciplinary competition challenge: The prediction of hi-res rain radar movies from multi-band satellite sensors, requiring data fusion, multi-channel video frame prediction, and super-resolution. Accurate predictions of rain events are becoming ever more critical, with climate change increasing the frequency of unexpected rainfall. The resulting models will have a particular impact where costly weather radar is not available. We here present highlights and insights emerging from the thirty teams participating from over a dozen countries. To extract relevant patterns, models were challenged by spatio-temporal shifts. Geometric data augmentation and test-time ensemble models with a suitable smoother loss helped this transfer learning. Even though, in ablation, static information like geographical location and elevation was not linked to performance, the general success of models incorporating physics in this competition suggests that approaches combining machine learning with application domain knowledge seem a promising avenue for future research. Weather4cast will continue to explore the powerful benchmark reference data set introduced here, advancing competition tasks to quantitative predictions, and exploring the effects of metric choice on model performance and qualitative prediction properties.

Prediction of the movement of all traffic participants is a very important task in autonomous driving. Well-predicted behavior of other cars and actors is crucial for safety. A sequence of bird’s-eye view artificially rasterized frames are used as input to neural networks which are trained to predict the future behavior of the participants. The Lyft Motion Prediction for Autonomous Vehicles dataset is explored and adapted for this task. We developed and applied a novel approach where the prediction problem is viewed as a problem of spatiotemporal prediction and we use methods based on convolutional recurrent neural networks.
