A deep learning approach for precipitation nowcasting with RNN using Analytics Zoo on BigDL
Location: 1A 15/16 Level: Intermediate
Secondary topics:  Deep Learning, Temporal data and time-series analytics
Alex Heye (Cray), Ding Ding (Intel)
Precipitation nowcasting is used to predict the future rainfall intensity over a relatively short timeframe. The forecasting resolution and time accuracy required are much higher than for other traditional forecasting tasks. Alexander Heye and Ding Ding explain how to build a precipitation nowcasting system with recurrent neural networks using BigDL on Apache Spark. Read more.
