Long Short-Term Memory networks for large-scale rainfall-runoff modeling | Earth & Sustainability
0Abstract \nThis talk will neither be about the depths of deep learning nor the depths of hydrology. Rather it will be a mix of both worlds from the perspective of solving problems in one field with tools from the other. If you are interested to hear about real-world applications of deep learning models to engineering tasks and all the research behind it, this talk is for you. \n\nMore specifically, the talk will revisit the outcomes of years of research in the intersection of deep learning and rainfall-runoff modeling and why a more than 30-year-old neural network architecture (Long Short-Term Memory, LSTM) seems to be a perfect fit for this application. It will also be the tale of a young researcher that tried many (too complicated?) things but always found out that simplicity wins. More than anything, This talk may inspire (young) researchers to look for interdisciplinary problems/projects and to learn about new tools/techniques from different fields. \n\nSpeaker: Frederik Kratzert, Research Scientist, Google Research \n\n#AIforGoodDiscovery #Earth&Sustainability\n\nJoin the Neural Network! \nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/neural-network/\nThe AI for Good networking community platform powered by AI. \nDesigned to help users build connections with innovators and experts, link innovative ideas with social impact opportunities, and bring the community together to advance the SDGs using AI.\n\n Watch the latest #AIforGood videos!\n\n\nExplore more #AIforGood content:\n AI for Good Top Hits\n • Top Hits \n\n AI for Good Webinars\n • AI for Good Webinars \n\n AI for Good Keynotes\n • AI for Good Keynotes \n\n Stay updated and join our weekly AI for Good newsletter:\nhttp://eepurl.com/gI2kJ5\n\n Discover what's next on our programme!\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/programme/\n\nCheck out the latest AI for Good news:\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/newsroom/\n\nExplore the AI for Good blog:\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/ai-for-good-blog/\n\n Connect on our social media:\nWebsite: https://aiforgood.itu.int/\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/AIforGood\nLinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/26511907 \nLinkedIn Group: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8567748 \nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aiforgood \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AIforGood\n\nWhat is AI for Good?\nWe have less than 10 years to solve the UN SDGs and AI holds great promise to advance many of the sustainable development goals and targets.\nMore than a Summit, more than a movement, AI for Good is presented as a year round digital platform where AI innovators and problem owners learn, build and connect to help identify practical AI solutions to advance the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.\nAI for Good is organized by ITU in partnership with 40 UN Sister Agencies and co-convened with Switzerland.\n\nDisclaimer:\nThe views and opinions expressed are those of the panelists and do not reflect the official policy of the ITU.
