Conformal Prediction with Time-Series Data via Sequential Conformalized Density Regions
We propose a new conformal prediction method for time-series data with a guaranteed asymptotic conditional coverage rate, Sequential Conformalized Density Regions (SCDR), which is flexible enough to produce both prediction intervals and disconnected prediction sets, signifying the emergence of bifurcations. Our approach uses existing estimated conditional highest density predictive regions to form initial predictive regions. We then use a quantile random forest conformal adjustment to provide guaranteed coverage while adaptively changing to take the non-exchangeable nature of time-series data into account. We show that the proposed method achieves the guaranteed coverage rate asymptotically under certain regularity conditions. In particular, the method is doubly robust -- it works if the predictive density model is correctly specified and/or if the scores follow a nonlinear autoregressive model with the correct order specified. Simulations reveal that the proposed method outperforms existing methods in terms of empirical coverage rates and set sizes. We illustrate the method using two real datasets, the Old Faithful geyser dataset and the Australian electricity usage dataset. Prediction sets formed using SCDR for the geyser eruption durations include both single intervals and unions of two intervals, whereas existing methods produce wider, less informative, single-interval prediction sets.

The Echinus Geyser is a hot spring located in Norris Geyser Basin at Yellowstone National Park, measuring around 660 feet (200 metres) across. During the 1970s it would erupt for up to 90 minutes at a time, blasting hot acidic water up to 75ft (23m) into the air roughly every hour.

World's largest acidic geyser erupts for first time since 2020
Environment Conservation World's largest acidic geyser erupts for first time since 2020 Echinus Geyser in Yellowstone National Park is in one of the park's hottest and most dynamic regions. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. The world's largest acidic geyser is erupting for the first time in six years. Yellowstone National Park's Echinus Geyser is part of the very active Norris Geyser Basin in Wyoming. In early February, the geyser began spewing out acid and water up to 30 feet into the air.

WildfireSpreadTS: A dataset of multi-modal time series for wildfire spread prediction
We present a multi-temporal, multi-modal remote-sensing dataset for predicting how active wildfires will spread at a resolution of 24 hours. The dataset consists of 13 607 images across 607 fire events in the United States from January 2018 to October 2021. For each fire event, the dataset contains a full time series of daily observations, containing detected active fires and variables related to fuel, topography and weather conditions. The dataset is challenging due to: a) its inputs being multi-temporal, b) the high number of 23 multi-modal input channels, c) highly imbalanced labels and d) noisy labels, due to smoke, clouds, and inaccuracies in the active fire detection.

5,000-year-old bacteria thawed in Romanian ice cave
Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Whether it's the ocean's deepest hydrothermal vents or tall mountain peaks, bacteria is likely surviving and thriving. Ice caves can host a wide variety of microorganisms and offer biologists a bevy of genetic diversity that still has to be studied. And it could help save lives. A team of scientists in Romania tested antibiotic resistance profiles with a bacterial strain that was hidden in a 5,000-year-old layer of ice inside an underground ice cave.

SSL4EO-L: Datasets and Foundation Models for Landsat Imagery Adam J. Stewart
The Landsat program is the longest-running Earth observation program in history, with 50+ years of data acquisition by 8 satellites. The multispectral imagery captured by sensors onboard these satellites is critical for a wide range of scientific fields. Despite the increasing popularity of deep learning and remote sensing, the majority of researchers still use decision trees and random forests for Landsat image analysis due to the prevalence of small labeled datasets and lack of foundation models. In this paper, we introduce SSL4EO-L, the first ever dataset designed for Self-Supervised Learning for Earth O bservation for the Landsat family of satellites (including 3 sensors and 2 product levels) and the largest Landsat dataset in history (5M image patches). Additionally, we modernize and re-release the L7 Irish and L8 Biome cloud detection datasets, and introduce the first ML benchmark datasets for Landsats 4-5 TM and Landsat 7 ETM+ SR. Finally, we pre-train the first foundation models for Landsat imagery using SSL4EO-L and evaluate their performance on multiple semantic segmentation tasks.
