Note. The SSIM unit is dimensionless. The larger the SSIM, the more similar the 2 comparison objects. When the SSIM is 1, the 2 comparison objects are the same. The unit of NMI is mm, and the unit of PSNR is dB. The larger the PSNR value is, the less distortion there is between the retrieval field and the actual GPM field. Precipitation thresholds in POD, FAR, and CSI were all set to 5.0 mm/h.
