Segmentation of spectroscopic images of the low solar atmosphere by the Self Organizing Map technique
arXiv:2102.11595 · doi:10.1093/mnras/stab507
Abstract
We describe the application of Semantic Segmentation by using the Self Organizing Map technique to an high spatial and spectral resolution dataset acquired along the H line at 656.28 nm by the Interferometric Bi-dimensional Spectrometer installed at the focus plane of the Dunn Solar Telescope. This machine learning approach allowed us to identify several features corresponding to the main structures of the solar photosphere and chromosphere. The obtained results show the capability and flexibility of this method to identifying and analyzing the fine structures which characterize the solar activity in the low atmosphere. This is a first successful application of the SOM technique to astrophysical data sets.
