Spatiotemporal Multivariate Weather Prediction Network Based on CNN-Transformer by Ruowu Wu, Yandan Liang, Lianlei Lin, Zongwei Zhang

“…However, the existing data-based weather prediction methods cannot adequately capture the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of the target region, which makes it difficult for the existing methods to meet practical application requirements in terms of efficiency and accuracy. Changes in weather involve both strongly correlated spatial and temporal continuation relationships, and at the same time, the variables interact with each other, so capturing the dynamic correlations among space, time, and variables is particularly important for accurate weather prediction. …”
