New typhoon dataset V3 benchmarks AI models for multi-spectral analysis

This paper introduces the Digital Typhoon Dataset V3, an updated collection of nearly 50 years of typhoon satellite imagery designed to evaluate machine learning models. The new version includes multispectral data to support multi-channel models and investigates performance differences between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Initial findings suggest that multi-channel inputs do not consistently outperform single-channel inputs for pressure regression, with ResNet-18 and full-resolution images showing strong single-channel performance. The research also identified a systematic bias in intensity regression, leading to an underestimation of strong typhoon intensities, and found that imbalance-aware weighting strategies were insufficient to correct this bias. AI

IMPACT Provides a new benchmark dataset for evaluating AI models on long-term spatio-temporal data, potentially improving typhoon forecasting and analysis.
