ML model struggles with visibility prediction due to data shifts

Researchers have developed a machine learning framework for predicting atmospheric visibility in six South Korean cities, addressing challenges like imbalanced data and distribution shifts. The study employed techniques such as SMOTENC and CTGAN to handle data imbalance and an ensemble of machine and deep learning models for prediction. A significant drop in performance on the test set compared to cross-validation highlighted the impact of temporal distribution shifts, quantified using Wasserstein distance. AI

IMPACT Presents a methodology for addressing data imbalance and distribution shifts in time-series forecasting, applicable to various scientific domains.
