  1. Dear experts, which tools and models do you recommend for univariate time series? In the past I used glmnet and lagged auxiliary time series, but there must be something less "artisanal". Thanks!

  2. "Warmer air holds more moisture for a longer time. So it may not rain for some days, then suddenly dump a month’s worth of rain in a few hours.

    #Nowcasting is basically extrapolation based on clouds and other observations. Radars provide us high resolution, infrared images. Models are also used. That is enough to tell us what to expect in the next few hours. We are increasingly seeing #mesoscale events during monsoon periods which have a very localised impact.”

    Google data can be useful for #GDP #growth #nowcasting during expansion phases when information is lacking, after a pre-selection step. As soon as official macroeconomic information arrives, the marginal gain from Google data tends to vanish. During #recession phases, it seems that forecasters need the largest available information set to assess economic activity. … empirical results point to the importance of pre-selecting data before using it in nowcasting models.

    Good reading that reminds me that we move from a mainly static world with #forecasting to so many dynamic ecosystems that leads to #nowcasting, trying to understand the #now😳 It's no less exciting😉

  7. Hi 👋 😀

    I'm Leif ("life") and I do research into clouds an their effect on Earth's weather and climate using fluid dynamics simulations and machine learning.

    I'm particularly interested in making better predictions about our planet's future weather and climate. Love all things science, technology and jazzy 🎶 🎵 🌍 🌎 🌏 🛰️ 💻

  8. Zahlreiche Medien hatten die Qualität und Aussagekraft der vom Robert Koch-Institut veröffentlichten Hospitalisierungsrate kritisiert. Nun bessert das RKI nach - mit einer speziellen statistischen Methode.
