Automatic solar flare detection using neural network techniques

We present a new method for automatic detection of flare events from images in the optical range. The method uses neural networks for pattern recognition and is conceived to be applied to full-disk Hα images. Images are analyzed in real time, which allows for the design of automatic patrol processes...
