Beyond the Blind Zone

Inpainting radar gaps with deep learning

Overview

In this post, we review high-level details from our recent work on image inpainting of radar blind zones. We discuss the main science problems, inpainting techniques, model architecture decisions, fidelity metrics, uncertainties, and finish with an analysis of model explainability (XAI), in the hope that this information can help others when planning future, similar projects. This work was recently published in the American Meteorologic Society’s Artificial Intelligence for Earth Sciences (AIES) https://doi.org/10.1175/AIES-D-23-0063.1, …
