How can machine learning be used for oceanography?

Disclaimer: I am not a machine learning specialist or an oceanographer. I am only a computer scientist who satisfied their undergrad general science requirement with oceanography. read more

Machine learning is what used to be called AI (everyone but academics still calls it that). Since there is no known limits to intelligence yet there are known limits to what a computer can do (look up the halting problem) we need to ask where to draw the line. read more

Together with Anastase-Alexandre Charontanis at LOCEAN, we've combined powerful methods from machine learning with the physical understanding of the links between the surface and deep ocean to use surface satellite data to predict currents at 1000m depth. read more
