Researchers have developed SoftSEEPS, a differentiable approximation of the SEEPS score, to enhance machine learning models for precipitation forecasting. This new method allows for direct training of ML models by incorporating SoftSEEPS alongside the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) in the objective function. Testing on the IMERG dataset demonstrated that SoftSEEPS can be effectively used to train precipitation forecasting decoders, with only marginal trade-offs when combined with RMSE. AI
