天气预报在农业、可再生能源和灾害管理等领域至关重要,但大气的动态性和混沌性给传统预测模型带来巨大挑战。本文探索量子机器学习(QML)与气候预测的交叉领域,利用美国宇航局全球能源资源预测(POWER)数据库的真实气象数据,训练量子神经网络(QNN)。结果表明,QNN在风速预测方面表现出更高的准确性和对突发数据变化的适应能力,优于经典循环神经网络(RNN)。尽管存在非线性及架构敏感性问题,QNN在处理时间变异性方面仍具鲁棒性,且温度预测收敛速度更快。这些发现凸显了量子模型在短期和中期气候预测中的潜力,同时也揭示了优化方向与广泛应用面临的挑战。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Weather forecasting plays a crucial role in supporting strategic decisions across various sectors, including agriculture, renewable energy production, and disaster management. However, the inherently dynamic and chaotic behavior of the atmosphere presents significant challenges to conventional predictive models. On the other hand, introducing quantum computing simulation techniques to the forecasting problems constitutes a promising alternative to overcome these challenges. In this context, this work explores the emerging intersection between quantum machine learning (QML) and climate forecasting. We present the implementation of a Quantum Neural Network (QNN) trained on real meteorological data from NASA's Prediction of Worldwide Energy Resources (POWER) database. The results show that QNN has the potential to outperform a classical Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) in terms of accuracy and adaptability to abrupt data shifts, particularly in wind speed prediction. Despite observed nonlinearities and architectural sensitivities, the QNN demonstrated robustness in handling temporal variability and faster convergence in temperature prediction. These findings highlight the potential of quantum models in short and medium term climate prediction, while also revealing key challenges and future directions for optimization and broader applicability.
