Phys-Diff: A Physics-Inspired Latent Diffusion Model for Tropical Cyclone Forecasting

Researchers have developed Phys-Diff, a physics-inspired latent diffusion model for tropical cyclone forecasting that incorporates physical relationships between cyclone attributes. The model integrates multimodal data including historical cyclone data, ERA5 reanalysis, and FengWu forecast fields, achieving state-of-the-art performance on global and regional datasets.
