Check out and play with our convection-allowing GenAI emulator called StormCast as part of the recent updates to NVIDIA’s open source Modulus library. The model emulates HRRR with preconditioning from ERA5 to generate high-res forecasts over central US. #GenAI

Yes it is indeed a large array with quite a good number of channels and thus we went with zarr. I think zarr is of course more optimized for large tensors but the benefit also shows up in smaller tensors as they are easily scalable data format, similar to HDF.

We have been experimenting with NVIDIA DALI for deep learning training and inference work with Pytorch and zarr-enabled data loaders. It really has optimized our training and inference pipeline.

I wish to specially thank @mikepritchard.bsky.social for giving me the opportunity to work with and learn from his team at NVIDIA. I surely have learnt so much during one year of my postdoc tenure here at NVIDIA. πŸ™πŸ½

I am super excited to announce that I will be starting as a senior AI weather scientist at RWE AI lab very soon. I will be joining an incredible team of folks such as @briane678.bsky.social and @lmadaus.bsky.social, who are doing some awesome work in AI for weather domain. 🍻 to the new beginnings!

There definitely are a bunch of ML based air quality models out there right now. I believe Microsoft’s Aurora also has that capability if you want to give it a try! πŸ™‚
