| contents | Accurate weather forecasting holds significant importance to human activities. Currently, there are two paradigms for weather forecasting: Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) and Deep Learning-based Prediction (DLP). NWP utilizes atmospheric physics for weather modeling but suffers from poor data utilization and high computational costs, while DLP can learn weather patterns from vast amounts of data directly but struggles to incorporate physical laws. Both paradigms possess their respective strengths and weaknesses, and are incompatible, because physical laws adopted in NWP describe the relationship between coordinates and meteorological variables, while DLP directly learns the relationships between meteorological variables without consideration of coordinates. To address these problems, we introduce the DeepPhysiNet framework, incorporating physical laws into deep learning models for accurate and continuous weather system modeling. First, we construct physics networks based on multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) for individual meteorological variable, such as temperature, pressure, and wind speed. Physics networks establish relationships between variables and coordinates by taking coordinates as input and producing variable values as output. The physical laws in the form of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) can be incorporated as a part of loss function. Next, we construct hyper-networks based on deep learning methods to directly learn weather patterns from a large amount of meteorological data. The output of hyper-networks constitutes a part of the weights for the physics networks. Experimental results demonstrate that, upon successful integration of physical laws, DeepPhysiNet can accomplish multiple tasks simultaneously, not only enhancing forecast accuracy but also obtaining continuous spatiotemporal resolution results, which is unattainable by either the NWP or DLP. |
