Visibility nowcasting in South Korea: a machine learning approach to class imbalance and distribution shift

Abstract: Atmospheric visibility is a critical variable for transportation safety and air quality management, however, accurate prediction remains challenging due to the complex interactions between meteorological conditions and air pollutants, as well as the rarity of low-visibility events. This study introduces a machine learning framework to nowcast visibility in six major South Korean cities. To handle the imbalance in the 2018-2020 training data, we applied the Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique with Nominal and Continuous (SMOTENC) and Conditional Tabular Generative Adversarial Network (CTGAN). An ensemble approach combining machine learning and deep learning models was then used and evaluated on a 2021 test dataset. The results revealed a marked decline in predictive performance in the test set compared to the cross-validation phase. This degradation was attributed to a distributional shift between training and testing periods, which was quantitatively confirmed by measuring the Wasserstein distance of the most influential feature identified by SHAP analysis. In general, this study presents a methodology that aims to simultaneously address the dual challenges of data imbalance and temporal distributional shifts, and emphasizes the necessity of accounting for evolving external environmental factors when implementing nowcasting models on time-series data.

You know there's a chance it would be legal for the King to just set up Brit-Coop as an act of resignation.
Transfer ownership of everything belonging to the crown to a new organization that has ownership by worker-hour, and a mission to rebuild the public infrastructure for the public good.
Use government connections to get it the contracts for welfare-money-for-training.
He won't. Nor will his kids.
Royals aren't about that. They aren't the country. They shouldn't be it's owners.
But it wouldn't be illegal I don't think. If anyone has his royal ear. His big ear.

SF-Flow: Sound field magnitude estimation via flow matching guided by sparse measurements

Abstract: Reconstructing a 3D sound field from sparse microphone measurements is a fundamental yet ill-posed problem, which we address through Acoustic Transfer Function (ATF) magnitude estimation. ATF magnitude encapsulates key perceptual and acoustic properties of a physical space with applications in room characterization and correction. Although recent generative paradigms such as Flow Matching (FM) have achieved state-of-the-art performance in speech and music generation, their potential in spatial audio remains underexplored. We propose a novel framework for 3D ATF magnitude reconstruction as a guided generation task, with a 3D U-Net conditioned by a permutation-invariant set encoder. This architecture enables reconstruction from an arbitrary number of sparse inputs while leveraging the stable and efficient training properties of FM. Experimental results demonstrate that SF-Flow achieves accurate reconstruction up to \SI{1}{kHz}, trains substantially faster than the autoencoder baseline, and improves significantly with dataset size.

Joe Milton Named Cowboys Top Trade Candidate Entering 2026 Season https://www.si.com/nfl/cowboys/onsi/joe-milton-named-dallas-cowboys-top-trade-candidate-entering-2026-season
Starmer is doing a thing about election results. Is he resigning?
He says the elections were tough, he lost brilliant representatives. He feels the hurt and takes responsibility. Not just for the results, but also for explaining how they'll do better in the years ahead.
Times are dangerous, opponents are very dangerous, if we don't get it right the country will be on a very dark path.
He takes responsibility for navigation in this dangerous world and for not walking away.
Oh right, he's not resigning then. 😦
He says he'll prove his doubters wrong. He's learned a lot! And realizes now we need a bigger response to this unordinary times.
Times demand serious progressive leadership he says, and Zack or Nigel can't provide that. [Citation needed] Only Labour can [Really, come on, citation needed]
He's pleased to be reducing NHS waiting lists and crime, and for some reason is pleased migration is coming down too.
He says he realizes that people don't think Labour cares about them. So that's something.
So his plan to fix things after this election is to talk more about why he's doing things instead of just saying what he's doing.
Right. Sure. That'll help.
He admits millions of people, like his sister, don't get respect or help and are held back because the status quo doesn't work.
He says he's fighting for them but, eh, perhaps he should be doing that thing where he says more about why and how?
He says we need a complete break to take control of energy and defense and fairness (he isn't resigning though, not THAT complete a break)
"Strength Through Fairness, Hope and Urgency" is his plan.
Three concrete examples of the plan:
Sure, about time, not like the Greens are against that.
Doesn't sound like he wants a re-join though, so not really sure what this means. The EU don't allow partial memberships or cherry picking benefits. Some kind of external heart I guess, an outside-body heart pump?
No. He's going to guarantee training or work placements to school leavers.
So in response to likely being unelected next time, he'll nationalize steel (now he's failed to find a corporate buyer anyway), is going to renegotiate with Europe (again, they have no better offers to give), and offer apprenticeships to education-leavers (who are still going to be mostly in debt by then).
Right.
Oh, and he's going to ban more marches too. Almost forgot that.
What a cock.
He did sound a bit passionate at least for a change.
