Research subject

Meteorological studies about typhoon using AI and HPC technologies

Contents of research

The disasters induced by typhoon is getting to become more severe and that raises an important social issue to realize the sustainable society. For disaster prevention and mitigation, we are tackling typhoon studies with the synergy effect between the conventional model-driven simulation techniques and the data-driven AI techniques. We believe that the progress in the AI and HPC technology will lead to improvement in predicting of typhoon.

Roles of both parties
