YingLan: New multimodal ocean foundation model developed

Researchers have developed YingLan, a novel multimodal foundation model designed to unify representation learning from diverse oceanographic data sources. The model integrates physics-attribute-conditioned dynamic encoding and Spatiotemporal Increment Coupling (STIC) to handle heterogeneous data structures and spatiotemporal dependencies. YingLan was implemented using MindSpore and trained on Huawei Ascend 910B NPUs, showing promising results in a sea surface salinity forecasting task. AI

IMPACT This model could advance unified representation learning for complex environmental data, potentially improving forecasting and analysis in oceanography.

    YingLan: A Multimodal Ocean Foundation Model for Unified Representation Learning from Heterogeneous Observations

    arXiv:2610.29313v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal ocean modeling remains challenging due to substantial heterogeneity in data structures, physical semantics, and spatiotemporal characteristics across satellite imagery, gridded oceanographic fields, and buoy observations.…
