Popis: | Precipitation downscaling, which is similar to the mechanism of single-image super-resolution (SR), aims to improve the spatial resolution of rain maps. It is of great practical value and theoretical significance. This letter presents a new deep precipitation downscaling (DPD) method, named auxiliary guided spatial distortion (AGSD) network, motivated by SR techniques. Specifically, an auxiliary guided module (AGM), which takes multiple meteorological elements (e.g., temperature, relative humidity, and wind) as input, is proposed for getting more accurate rain map features. Meanwhile, a simple but effective spatial distortion module (SDM) is proposed. Benefitting from SDM, the DPD model can rectify the rain map via terrain correlation. Furthermore, to improve the model performance among various rain intensity (including small rain, moderate rain, heavy rain, and storm), a threat score-driven pseudo threat-score (PTS) loss is presented. Experimental results compared with state-of-the-art methods demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method. |
