We’re using AI to improve cyclone prediction. 🌀 Introducing Weather Lab: a new interactive platform developed with @GoogleResearch, hosting our experimental AI weather model which can predict a cyclone’s track, intensity, size and structure. Here’s how it works. 🧵

Where should we measure the environment to minimise uncertainty about weather and climate? 🎲⛅ I'm excited to share that my second journal paper, which grapples with this fascinating problem, will be published soon! Interested? Check out my 15-min talk: youtu.be/v0pmqh09u1Y

Still using latent variables to get correlations out of your Neural Process? Then consider Gaussian Neural Processes (GNP)! ✓ Correlated predictions ✓ Tractable likelihood @stratosmarkou, @jamesrequeima, @ikwess, Anna Vaughan & Rich Turner #ICLR2022 arxiv.org/abs/2203.08775
