In one sentence. ResGraphNet, a GraphSAGE model with residual links, predicts HadCRUT5 global monthly mean temperature more accurately than 11 baselines across seven datasets.

Abstract

Data-driven prediction of time series is significant in many scientific research fields such as global climate change and weather forecast. For global monthly mean temperature series, considering the strong potential of deep neural network for extracting data features, this paper proposes a data-driven model, ResGraphNet, which improves the prediction accuracy of time series by an embedded residual module in GraphSAGE layers. The experimental results of a global mean temperature dataset, HadCRUT5, show that compared with 11 traditional prediction technologies, the proposed ResGraphNet obtains the best accuracy. The error indicator predicted by the proposed ResGraphNet is smaller than that of the other 11 prediction models. Furthermore, the performance on seven temperature datasets shows the excellent generalization of the ResGraphNet. Finally, based on our proposed ResGraphNet, the predicted 2022 annual anomaly of global temperature is 0.74722 °C, which provides confidence for limiting warming to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels.
