在本文中,我们介绍了两种新的模型来处理真实的卫星图像,以量化和可视化它们的三维磁性结构。我们相信这项多学科的工作是图像处理、3D可视化和太阳物理学之间的真正融合。第一个模型旨在计算活动区和太阳盘的磁复杂度。利用该模型进行了一系列实验,并确定了计算的磁复杂度值与太阳耀斑事件之间的关系。第二个模型旨在将计算出的磁场复杂性可视化为3D彩色地图,以便确定太阳上喷发区域的位置。这两种模型都显示出良好的结果,在太阳成像、空间天气和太阳耀斑预测预报等领域具有潜在的应用前景。
In this paper, we introduce two novel models for processing real-life satellite images to quantify and then visualise their magnetic structures in 3D. We believe this multidisciplinary work is a real convergence between image processing, 3D visualisation and solar physics. The first model aims to calculate the value of the magnetic complexity in active regions and the solar disk. A series of experiments are carried out using this model and a relationship has been indentified between the calculated magnetic complexity values and solar flare events. The second model aims to visualise the calculated magnetic complexities in 3D colour maps in order to identify the locations of eruptive regions on the Sun. Both models demonstrate promising results and they can be potentially used in the fields of solar imaging, space weather and solar flare prediction and forecasting.
