Or more accurately, discussing numerical methods for gradient descent while undergoing (rapid) gradient descent ⛷️
Talking numerical methods with @arvindmohan.bsky.social in our second, better office

I'm really excited about this paper. Some context for 🔭🧪🔬 folks, as the AI summary may be a bit dry...

A common activity in scientific ML is to train AI models on numerical data, generated by simulation. The simulation data is assumed to be ground truth... 🧵

Cool article by @marccoru.bsky.social et al. exploring the use of spherical harmonics and very shallow SIREN networks to convert longitude and latitude meaningful geospatial embeddings on the sphere (code is also available) arxiv.org/abs/2310.06743

This is a fantastic resource to make research more accessible!
One of my favourite data discoveries this year: Google's mind-blowing ARCO-ERA5 dataset: hourly data for ~300 climate variables, available globally from 1940! 🤯

Loadable with a single line of Python code from a single cloud-friendly Zarr file! Below: a month of wind waves + swell: 🌊

To add, even in cases where extrapolation is seen, its likely because of "lucky" interactions in numerical dissipation between the discretization scheme, the grid and the initial condition. Our paper provides formal tools to a priori estimate error and identify extrapolation limits *before* training
