• Abstract summary: The Cameras for Allsky Meteor Surveillance (CAMS) project aims to map our meteor showers by triangulating meteor trajectories detected in low-light video cameras. Our research aimed to streamline the data processing by implementing an automated cloud-based AI-enabled pipeline. To date, CAMS has discovered over 200 new meteor showers and has validated dozens of previously reported showers.

• Abstract: The Cameras for Allsky Meteor Surveillance (CAMS) project, funded by NASA starting in 2010, aims to map our meteor showers by triangulating meteor trajectories detected in low-light video cameras from multiple locations across 16 countries in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Its mission is to validate, discover, and predict the upcoming returns of meteor showers. Our research aimed to streamline the data processing by implementing an automated cloud-based AI-enabled pipeline and improve the data visualization to improve the rate of discoveries by involving the public in monitoring the meteor detections. This article describes the process of automating the data ingestion, processing, and insight generation using an interpretable Active Learning and AI pipeline. This work also describes the development of an interactive web portal (the NASA Meteor Shower portal) to facilitate the visualization of meteor radiant maps. To date, CAMS has discovered over 200 new meteor showers and has validated dozens of previously reported showers.

  We introduce datasetnamenospace, a benchmark of 140 yes/no questions from NASA Earth Observatory articles across 13 topics and 17 satellite sensors. Using Google Earth Engine API as a tool, LLM agents can only achieve an accuracy of 33% because the code fails to run over 58% of the time. We improve the failure rate for open models by fine-tuning synthetic data, allowing much smaller models to achieve comparable accuracy to much larger ones.

We trained and evaluated our model on a large dataset collected by the Spanish Meteor Network (SPMN) and achieved a precision of 98%.

  We propose ASOC, a novel attentive method for effectively exploiting ground-based meteorological observations from multiple weather stations. ASOC is designed to capture temporal dynamics of the observations and also contextual relationships between them. We show that such a combination improves the average critical success index (CSI) of predicting heavy (at least 10 mm/hr) and light (at least 1 mm/hr) rainfall events at 1-6 hr lead times by 5.7%.
