AI Unveils Algorithm to Accurately Forecast Monster Rogue Waves

Scientists have used artificial intelligence to develop a model that can predict the formation of rogue waves, which are large and unpredictable waves in the open ocean. By analyzing over 1 billion waves, the researchers identified the causal variables and used machine learning to create a mathematical equation. The model can reproduce past behavior and predict future rogue waves, potentially improving shipping safety. The algorithm and research are available to the public, allowing shipping companies to assess the risk of encountering dangerous waves and choose alternative routes.
