David - I forgot to edit the mask field on line 71 of
GridStatConfig_sh172019_gt18ft_WW3TCOFCL-
WW3TCOFCL.2019030712_2019030212-120; it should be

Thanks for the quick turnaround!

Hi Efren -
Can you upload via FTP your file sh172019-2019030712.nc for the poly
mask?
I'll modify the config.
Also, is this MET version 9.1.1 or an earlier version?
thanks
David

No worries! Mr Sampson and I are really wondering why BASER_10 is zero
even though of what attached images (plot_data_plane) show.

Subject: BASER question
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Mon Feb 22 14:20:50 2021
Efren and Buck,
David asked me to take a look at this. I just pulled down the data and
ran
Grid-Stat using MET version 9.1. I ran using the masking region you
provided (poly = ["sh172019-2019030712.nc"];) and I'm looking at the
BASER_10 column of the PJC output line. And you're wondering why
BASER_10 =
0.0 there.
All of the probabilistic verification is done in MET using an Nx2
probabilistic contingency table. Since you configured Grid-Stat with
"fcst.cat_thresh = ==0.1;", it's using 10 probability bins... so it's
a
10x2 contingency table. For each matched pair, we have a forecast
probability value between 0 and 1 and observation value that's
thresholded
(cat_thresh = >=18.0;) to turn it into a 0 or 1. Those matched pairs
are
used to populate the 10x2 contingency table.
Looking in the PCT (probabilistic contingency table) line type, I
selected
the following columns of output:
*TOTAL THRESH_10 OY_10 ON_10 THRESH_11400 0.9 0 23 1*
This tells us that the entire 10x2 table consists of 400 points
(TOTAL). Of
those, 23 points fell in the probability bin from 0.9 to 1.0
(THRESH_10 to
THRESH_11). Of those 23 points, the event occurred in the observation
0
times (OY_10) and did not occur 23 times (ON_10). The BASER_10 value
from
the PJC line type is the observation event frequency within that bin,
and 0
/ 23 = 0. So there were no points where the forecast value was between
0.9
and 1.0 and the observation was >=18.0.
Next, let's see if we can independently confirm this result... because
I
assume you've already looked closely at this example. I used the R
commands
listed below to read the NetCDF output from Grid-Stat and simply plot
fcst
vs obs. As you can see in the attached image, whenever the forecast
value
is >=0.9, the obs values are below 18, as indicated by the horizontal
line.
Hope that helps clarify.
Thanks,
John

Aha! This is great. I think maybe Efren’s area is correct and that
the 95% area predicted is just slower than actual event. Just an
unlucky miss.

Efren and Buck,

probability value between 0 and 1 and observation value that's
thresholded (cat_thresh = >=18.0;) to turn it into a 0 or 1. Those
matched pairs are used to populate the 10x2 contingency table.
Looking in the PCT (probabilistic contingency table) line type, I
selected the following columns of output:
*TOTAL THRESH_10 OY_10 ON_10 THRESH_11400 0.9 0 23 1*
This tells us that the entire 10x2 table consists of 400 points
(TOTAL). Of those, 23 points fell in the probability bin from 0.9 to
1.0 (THRESH_10 to THRESH_11). Of those 23 points, the event occurred
in the observation 0 times (OY_10) and did not occur 23 times (ON_10).
The BASER_10 value from the PJC line type is the observation event
frequency within that bin, and 0 / 23 = 0. So there were no points
where the forecast value was between 0.9 and 1.0 and the observation
was >=18.0.
Next, let's see if we can independently confirm this result... because
I assume you've already looked closely at this example. I used the R

Aha! This is great. I think maybe Efren’s area is correct and that
the 95% area predicted is just slower than actual event. Just an
unlucky miss.

Subject: Re: [rt.rap.ucar.edu #98769] BASER question
Efren and Buck,
David asked me to take a look at this. I just pulled down the data and
ran Grid-Stat using MET version 9.1. I ran using the masking region
you provided (poly = ["sh172019-2019030712.nc"];) and I'm looking at
the
BASER_10 column of the PJC output line. And you're wondering why
BASER_10 =
0.0 there.
All of the probabilistic verification is done in MET using an Nx2
probabilistic contingency table. Since you configured Grid-Stat with
"fcst.cat_thresh = ==0.1;", it's using 10 probability bins... so it's
a
10x2 contingency table. For each matched pair, we have a forecast
probability value between 0 and 1 and observation value that's
thresholded (cat_thresh = >=18.0;) to turn it into a 0 or 1. Those
matched pairs are used to populate the 10x2 contingency table.
Looking in the PCT (probabilistic contingency table) line type, I
selected the following columns of output:
*TOTAL THRESH_10 OY_10 ON_10 THRESH_11400 0.9 0 23 1*
This tells us that the entire 10x2 table consists of 400 points
(TOTAL). Of those, 23 points fell in the probability bin from 0.9 to
1.0 (THRESH_10 to THRESH_11). Of those 23 points, the event occurred
in the observation 0 times (OY_10) and did not occur 23 times (ON_10).
The BASER_10 value from the PJC line type is the observation event
frequency within that bin, and 0 / 23 = 0. So there were no points
where the forecast value was between 0.9 and 1.0 and the observation
was >=18.0.
Next, let's see if we can independently confirm this result... because
I assume you've already looked closely at this example. I used the R
commands listed below to read the NetCDF output from Grid-Stat and
simply plot fcst vs obs. As you can see in the attached image,
whenever the forecast value is >=0.9, the obs values are below 18, as
indicated by the horizontal line.
Hope that helps clarify.
Thanks,
John

Efren and Buck,
David asked me to take a look at this. I just pulled down the data and
ran Grid-Stat using MET version 9.1. I ran using the masking region
you provided (poly = ["sh172019-2019030712.nc"];) and I'm looking at
the
BASER_10 column of the PJC output line. And you're wondering why
BASER_10 =
0.0 there.
All of the probabilistic verification is done in MET using an Nx2
probabilistic contingency table. Since you configured Grid-Stat with
"fcst.cat_thresh = ==0.1;", it's using 10 probability bins... so it's
a
10x2 contingency table. For each matched pair, we have a forecast
probability value between 0 and 1 and observation value that's
thresholded (cat_thresh = >=18.0;) to turn it into a 0 or 1. Those
matched pairs are used to populate the 10x2 contingency table.
Looking in the PCT (probabilistic contingency table) line type, I
selected the following columns of output:
*TOTAL THRESH_10 OY_10 ON_10 THRESH_11400 0.9 0 23 1*
This tells us that the entire 10x2 table consists of 400 points
(TOTAL). Of those, 23 points fell in the probability bin from 0.9 to
1.0 (THRESH_10 to THRESH_11). Of those 23 points, the event occurred
in the observation 0 times (OY_10) and did not occur 23 times (ON_10).
The BASER_10 value from the PJC line type is the observation event
frequency within that bin, and 0 / 23 = 0. So there were no points
where the forecast value was between 0.9 and 1.0 and the observation
was >=18.0.
Next, let's see if we can independently confirm this result... because
I assume you've already looked closely at this example. I used the R
commands listed below to read the NetCDF output from Grid-Stat and
simply plot fcst vs obs. As you can see in the attached image,
whenever the forecast value is >=0.9, the obs values are below 18, as
indicated by the horizontal line.
Hope that helps clarify.
Thanks,
John

Subject: BASER question
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Mon Feb 22 22:12:59 2021
Sounds good. You know the features in the images you sent look a lot
like
objects. And Buck, your comment about the forecast being “slow”
reminds me
of object-based verification.
Not sure if you’ve already run the MODE tool in MET on this data but
it
could be a really nice application. You certainly can run MODE to
compare
objects from 2 different fields, like probabilities >25% vs obs >18.
Hopefully it’d give you more diagnostic info about the errors, like
being
too slow (centroid offset to the west) or fast (offset to the east).
MET also includes the MODE-Time-Domain tool to define 3D space-time
objects.
Thanks
John

Subject: BASER question
From: Sampson, Mr. Buck
Time: Tue Feb 23 08:22:49 2021
Thanks John. I have thought about the mode capabilities. Time and
money, of course. And concern about misplacement of the entire event,
which is a concern in operations. Your neighborhood capabilities
would also be more fair to any method that predicts rare events (e.g.,
90% of 18-ft waves) than an algorithm that spreads out a bunch of low
probabilities. Anyhow, we are learning something about our method
with MET that we didn't see before and learning about MET in the
process. Our post-processing is likely high biased (yet to be
proven), but is better at distinguishing events from non-events that
the ensemble without our tropical cyclone post-processing. And we
have easy ways to correct the high bias, so that's all good.
Reliability: Our question to you came up because I can't make sense of
our Reliability Diagrams. The 20x20 verification grid you should have
18-ft waves in it, like on the order of 10% (see purple contour in
second graphic). The BASER data looks to be a conditional probability
from what you sent, and I was under the impression that reliability
diagrams were strictly a count (percentage) of observed vs forecast
probabilities in our 20x20 grid. I think the reliability is probably
about right, even in the highest bin. So even though the TC forecast
was slow, there are still some verifying >18ft sig wave heights in the
20x20 grid. In fact, the percentage looks to be about right!
Buck
R,
Buck

Subject: BASER question
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Tue Feb 23 08:47:03 2021
Buck,
Sounds interesting. Since you mentioned the forecasts being biased,
you
might find percentile thresholds in MET to be useful. They can be used
to
de-bias the data. Search for percentile thresholds on this page:
https://dtcenter.github.io/MET/latest/Users_Guide/data_io.html?highlight=percentile%20thresholds
One option I really like is setting an explicit observation threshold,
like
"cat_thresh = >18;", and then setting "cat_thresh = ==FBIAS1;" for the
forecast. That tells MET to *choose* a threshold for the forecast that
will
result in a frequency bias as close to 1 as possible.
I'll go ahead and resolve this ticket.
Thanks,
John

John,
Wait! Can you comment on the second part? Am I dead wrong on that?

Buck,
Sounds interesting. Since you mentioned the forecasts being biased,
you might find percentile thresholds in MET to be useful. They can be
used to de-bias the data. Search for percentile thresholds on this
page:
https://dtcenter.github.io/MET/latest/Users_Guide/data_io.html?highlight=percentile%20thresholds
One option I really like is setting an explicit observation threshold,
like "cat_thresh = >18;", and then setting "cat_thresh = ==FBIAS1;"
for the forecast. That tells MET to *choose* a threshold for the
forecast that will result in a frequency bias as close to 1 as
possible.
I'll go ahead and resolve this ticket.
Thanks,
John

Wait! Can you comment on the second part? Am I dead wrong on that?

Buck,
Sounds interesting. Since you mentioned the forecasts being biased,
you might find percentile thresholds in MET to be useful. They can be
used to de-bias the data. Search for percentile thresholds on this
page:
https://dtcenter.github.io/MET/latest/Users_Guide/data_io.html?highlight=percentile%20thresholds
One option I really like is setting an explicit observation threshold,
like "cat_thresh = >18;", and then setting "cat_thresh = ==FBIAS1;"
for the forecast. That tells MET to *choose* a threshold for the
forecast that will result in a frequency bias as close to 1 as
possible.
I'll go ahead and resolve this ticket.
Thanks,
John

Subject: BASER question
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Tue Feb 23 09:26:19 2021
Buck,
Looking in the PSTD output line type, the BASER = 0.1275 output
indicates
that the event (>=18) occurs at 12.75% of the grid points. The
BASER_1,
BASER_2,... , BASER_10 values in the PJC line type give the event
frequency within that bin. I believe the reliability diagram simply
plots
the mid-point of the forecast probability bin vs the observed event
frequency within that bin.
If needed, I could load the sample data you sent into METviewer
running
through Docker on my laptop and make a reliability diagram.

Subject: BASER question
From: Sampson, Mr. Buck
Time: Tue Feb 23 10:05:04 2021
No, I'm good. Thanks for the offer. I think we have issues with our
numbers of cases, and that is what is throwing me off. I see "800"
cases for ".9" bin. We may be short one bin in our table,
specifically we might be missing the "1" or ".95" bin that we are
discussing. I hope ... at least that would explain what is happening
in that highest bin.
R,
Buck

Buck,
Looking in the PSTD output line type, the BASER = 0.1275 output
indicates that the event (>=18) occurs at 12.75% of the grid points.
The BASER_1, BASER_2,... , BASER_10 values in the PJC line type give
the event frequency within that bin. I believe the reliability diagram
simply plots the mid-point of the forecast probability bin vs the
observed event frequency within that bin.
If needed, I could load the sample data you sent into METviewer
running through Docker on my laptop and make a reliability diagram.
