用知识图谱让AI自动完成气候数据分析,只需自然语言指令。
AutoClimDS: Climate Data Science Agentic AI -- A Knowledge Graph is All You Need
- 构建气候科学知识图谱,整合数据、工具与分析流程
- 仅凭自然语言指令即可复现论文中的科学图表和分析结果
- 适合科研人员与跨学科合作者,降低气候研究门槛
气候数据科学受限于数据源分散、格式异构及高技术门槛,阻碍发现、限制参与并影响可复现性。我们提出AutoClimDS,一个最小可行产品级的智能体式AI系统,通过集成定制化的气候知识图谱(KG)与一系列面向云原生科学分析的智能体工作流来应对这些挑战。知识图谱将数据集、元数据、工具与工作流统一为机器可读结构;由生成式模型驱动的AI智能体可实现自然语言查询理解、自动化数据发现、程序化数据获取及端到端气候分析。关键成果显示,AutoClimDS仅凭自然语言指令即可完成从数据选择、预处理到建模的全流程,并成功复现已有科学图表与分析。相比之下,主流通用大模型(如ChatGPT GPT-5.1)无法独立识别权威数据集或构建有效检索工作流,仅靠标准网页访问。这表明结构化科学记忆对智能体科学推理至关重要。通过将流程知识编码至知识图谱,并结合云API、LLM与沙箱执行环境,AutoClimDS证明:知识图谱是自主气候数据科学的核心基础组件。该方法为通过人机协作实现气候研究民主化提供可行路径。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Climate data science remains constrained by fragmented data sources, heterogeneous formats, and steep technical expertise requirements. These barriers slow discovery, limit participation, and undermine reproducibility. We present AutoClimDS, a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) Agentic AI system that addresses these challenges by integrating a curated climate knowledge graph (KG) with a set of Agentic AI workflows designed for cloud-native scientific analysis. The KG unifies datasets, metadata, tools, and workflows into a machine-interpretable structure, while AI agents, powered by generative models, enable natural-language query interpretation, automated data discovery, programmatic data acquisition, and end-to-end climate analysis. A key result is that AutoClimDS can reproduce published scientific figures and analyses from natural-language instructions alone, completing the entire workflow from dataset selection to preprocessing to modeling. When given the same tasks, state-of-the-art general-purpose LLMs (e.g., ChatGPT GPT-5.1) cannot independently identify authoritative datasets or construct valid retrieval workflows using standard web access. This highlights the necessity of structured scientific memory for agentic scientific reasoning. By encoding procedural workflow knowledge into a KG and integrating it with existing technologies (cloud APIs, LLMs, sandboxed execution), AutoClimDS demonstrates that the KG serves as the essential enabling component, the irreplaceable structural foundation, for autonomous climate data science. This approach provides a pathway toward democratizing climate research through human-AI collaboration.
