Data Science Asked by Fabian Schultz on December 29, 2020
I’m trying to find a way to predict/calculate how a shape (e.g. outline of a glacier) will change in the future—based on its history (previous shape) and additional factors (e.g. Δtemperature).
In my example: I have the shape/coordinates of a glacier and an average temperature at 1970, 1985, 2000, 2015. How can I give an estimate on how that shape will look like in 2030, based on the previous shapes and a predicted temperature?
The shapes would ideally come in a format similar to this:
[
[
[-113.74926783355818, 48.32440832757374],
[-113.74926767330584, 48.32440813255405],
[-113.74926748239692, 48.32440458296232],
[-113.74926717549286, 48.32439887665663],
[-113.74926686858888, 48.32439317035087],
...
],
[
[-113.75763099733634, 48.32877681033601],
[-113.75763955455557, 48.32877660502744],
[-113.75764546550784, 48.32878027200765],
[-113.75765402272751, 48.32878006669797],
[-113.75766003497893, 48.32878563609638],
...
]
]
But I imagine it could be necessary to convert this to coordinate offsets (Δx
, Δy
) similar to what sketch_rnn is doing.
Any pointers would help. Even that this is too ambitious. Thanks!
Disclaimer: I’m a beginner with this and hope the question isn’t too naïve 🙂
Given that you only four data points (i.e., 970, 1985, 2000, 2015), there is no way to apply machine learning to make an accurate prediction.
If you get more data points, you can start with a sign prediction of surface area. You predict if the shape is increasing or decreasing in size.
