PrecipJEPA: JEPA-Regularized Future-State Prediction with Motion-Source Rendering for Precipitation Nowcasting
Long-term precipitation nowcasting requires modeling radar-echo evolution while preserving localized high-intensity structures. Recent radar-specific studies motivate location-aware prediction and separating echo displacement from intensity change. However existing encoders learn historical representations mainly from final forecast errors. We propose PrecipJEPA, which couples a structured forecasting path with an auxiliary path that enriches its encoder from observed radar history. In the forecasting path, an online encoder first converts the observations into spatiotemporal tokens. The Task-Driven Future-State Predictor (TFP) combines these tokens with a recent-dynamics summary and spat...
