Tropical cyclones (TCs) can cause significant economic damage and loss of life in coastal areas. Therefore, TC prediction has become a crucial topic in current research. In recent years, TC track prediction has progressed considerably, and intensity prediction remains a challenge due to the complex mechanism of TC structure. In this study, we propose a model for short-term intensity prediction based on adaptive weight learning (AWL-Net) for the evolution of the TC’s structure as well as intensity changes, exploring the multidimensional fusion of features including TC morphology, structure, and scale. Furthermore, in addition to using satellite imageries, we construct a dataset that can more comprehensively explore the degree of TC cloud organization and structure evolution. Considering the information difference between multi-source data, a multi-branch structure is constructed and adaptive weight learning (AWL) is designed. In addition, according to the three-dimensional dynamic features of TC, 3D Convolutional Gated Recurrent (3D ConvGRU) is used to achieve feature enhancement, and then 3D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is used to capture and learn TC temporal and spatial features. Experiments on a sample of northwest Pacific TCs and official agency TC intensity prediction records are used to validate the effectiveness of our proposed model, and the results show that our model is able to focus well on the spatial and temporal features associated with TC intensity changes, with a root mean square error (RMSE) of 10.62 kt for the TC 24 h intensity forecast. |
