Atmosphere Ocean Science Friday Seminar

Constraining estimates for sea level variability using quantile neural networks

Speaker: Andrew Brettin

Location: Warren Weaver Hall 1314

Date: Friday, February 28, 2025, 4 p.m.

Synopsis:

Today, I will be discussing an approach for non-parametrically estimating conditional probability distributions, using neural networks trained to predict quantiles. I’ll evaluate this approach against other methods for estimating conditional probabilities, and show how this can be applied to constrain estimates for observed sea level at tide gauges.
