Iqembu le-Google DeepMind lishicilele umbhalo webhulogi izolo (ngo-Agasti 7), limemezela ukwethulwa kwemodeli yokubikezela isimo sezulu i-WeatherNext Cyclones, eklanyelwe ikakhulukazi iziphepho (Cyclones). Lithi le modeli inokunemba okuhamba phambili embonini ekubikezeleni indlela, amandla kanye nokwakheka kwezinkundla zomoya.
Ngokombhalo webhulogi ocashunwe yi-IT之家, le modeli yathuthukiswa ngokubambisana yi-Google DeepMind, i-Google Research, i-United States National Hurricane Center (NHC), i-Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere (CIRA), i-UK Met Office kanye nezikhungo zezulu eziningi emhlabeni jikelele. Le modeli igxile eziphephweni ezishisayo, ibikezela ngokunemba okuphezulu indlela, amandla kanye nokwakheka kwezinkundla zomoya zezishingishane, iziphepho zasolwandle neziphepho ezinamandla.
Iqembu le-Google lithe uma kukalwa ngokusebenza okumaphakathi, le modeli ithuthukisa amandla okubikezela ngamahora angu-24. Amamodeli akhona ngokuvamile akwazi ukubikezela kusasele izinsuku ezingu-2 kuphela, kanti le modeli ingabikezela izinsuku ezingu-3 igcine ukunemba. I-Google ichaze ubukhulu balokhu kuthuthuka embhalweni webhulogi ngokuthi “cishe iminyaka engu-10 yenqubekelaphambili yesimo sezulu”.
Mayelana nokuqeqeshwa, le modeli yafunda kusukela ekuqaleni kuya ekugcineni cishe ku-20 TB wedatha yomkhathi womhlaba wonke, kanye nesizindalwazi se-IBTrACS (International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship) esihlanganisa cishe iziphepho zomlando ezingu-5,000.
Ngokwamandla okukhiqiza, isebenzisa i-Functional Generative Networks, le sistimu ingakhiqiza isibikezelo sezinsuku ezingu-15 ku-TPU ngaphansi komzuzu owodwa; ngonyaka odlule le sistimu yayikhiqiza izibikezelo ezingu-50 kuphela ngesikhathi esisodwa, kodwa manje isifinyelele ku-1000.
Ekusetshenzisweni kwangempela, i-WeatherNext yabikezela ngesizini yeziphepho yango-2025 ukuthi iSiphepho uMelissa (Melissa) sasizoqina futhi sifike eJamaica. I-NHC yasebenzisa lokhu ukukhipha isexwayiso kusenesikhathi, yanika amaqembu ezimo eziphuthumayo endawo isikhathi sokuzilungiselela.
Iqembu le-Google liphinde lavula umthombo we-WeatherNext 2, i-WeatherNext Cyclones kanye ne-WeatherNext 2-mini, lanikeza nomphakathi ikhodi ehambisanayo nezisindo zamamodeli.
