Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We also evaluate the current state-of-the-art deep learning models and Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) systems on HR-Extreme, and provide a improved baseline deep learning model called HR-Heim which has superior performance on both general loss and HR-Extreme compared to others. Our results reveal that the errors of extreme weather cases are significantly larger than overall forecast error, highlighting them as an crucial source of loss in weather prediction.

Pseudocode No The paper describes methods and model architectures (e.g., HR-Heim architecture, data collection processes) in narrative text, but it does not include a clearly labeled pseudocode or algorithm block.
Open Source Code No Our dataset (https://huggingface.co/datasets/Nian Ran1/HR-Extreme) and code (https: //github.com/Husky Nian/HR-Extreme) will be available upon the accpetance of this paper.
Open Datasets Yes Our dataset focuses on extreme weather events in the U.S. based on NOAA HRRR data. The HRRR data is in U.S. Government Work license, which means that the data is in the public domain and can be freely used, distributed, and modified without any restrictions. Our dataset (https://huggingface.co/datasets/Nian Ran1/HR-Extreme) and code (https: //github.com/Husky Nian/HR-Extreme) will be available upon the accpetance of this paper.
Dataset Splits Yes All models (Pangu, Fuxi, and our HR-Heim) were trained on HRRR data spanning the U.S. from January 2019 to June 2020, from scratch. ... We first evaluated the NWP model and the deep learning model on the original test set spanning from July 2020 to the end of 2020. Subsequently, these models were assessed and compared on HR-Extreme during the same period, as illustrated in Table 2.
Hardware Specification Yes All models were evaluated on an Nvidia A100 80G GPU, with the evaluation of a deep learning model for half a year s data taking approximately 8 hours.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions several deep learning models and libraries by name (e.g., Pangu, Fuxi, Swin Transformer, Herbie Python library), but does not provide specific version numbers for the software dependencies used in their experiments.
Experiment Setup Yes All models (Pangu, Fuxi, and our HR-Heim) were trained on HRRR data spanning the U.S. from January 2019 to June 2020, from scratch. They were trained under identical parameters and same level of model parameters, and no hyperparameter tuning was applied to HR-Heim. For our experiments, we set the batch size to 8.
