Typhoon science meets artificial intelligence: A roundtable on bridging physics-based and data-driven paradigms
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper summarizes the ‘Artificial Intelligence (AI) + Typhoon’ session and a subordinated roundtable forum at the 21st China National Workshop on Tropical Cyclones (NWTC-XXI, 16-18 April. 2025, Changsha China), highlighting recent advances in AI techniques for typhoon monitoring, forecasting, and impact assessment, as well as the deep integration of state-of-the-art artificial-intelligence weather prediction (AIWP) models with traditional physics-based numerical weather prediction (NWP) models. Key insights from the round-table forum are synthesized, emphasizing the strengths, limitations, and future development directions for AI models in typhoon forecasting. As a forward-looking perspective, we should be ready for embracing the emerging AI for research (AI4R) paradigm to advance typhoon science and technology.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
