Abstract
En 中文
In this paper, we make an overview of a methodology for the automatic retrieval of images with coronal loops from the solar image data captured by the extreme-ultraviolet imaging telescope (EIT) onboard the spacecraft SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory). Our image retrieval system provides relevant data to astrophysicists who need such data to study the coronal heating problem. As part of building this system, we investigated various image preprocessing techniques, image based features, and classifiers to automatically detect coronal loops and to indicate their locations on the images. Despite many challenges related to the coronal loop characteristic, we obtained promising results, namely, 78% precision and 80% recall in loop retrieval. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
