Problem the AI is intended to solve

Neural network accelerated radiative transfer modeling is intended to enhance efforts in the Earth Science domain.

Expected benefits

Specifically, JPL constructed a flexible radiative transfer model (RTM) that combines physics-based models and artificial neural networks with the intent of providing fast radiative transfer modeling for global imaging spectroscopy missions, as well as large-scale airborne campaigns (ABoVE, Western Diversity Time Series, FIREX-AQ, etc.)
