Gridded Earth (IMAGE)
Caption
First the authors divide the planet's surface into a grid with a six-sided cube (top left) and then flatten out the six sides into a 2-D shape, like in a paper model (bottom left). This new technique let the authors use standard machine learning techniques, developed for 2-D images, for weather forecasting.
