Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of space weather monitoring and forecasting technology, specifically to a geomagnetic storm forecasting method and system based on the fusion of multi-source continuous corona observation images. Background Technology

[0002] Geomagnetic storms are violent, global disturbances in Earth's magnetosphere, primarily caused by massive energy injections from the Sun lasting from several hours to several days. Their two main driving forces are: 1) coronal mass ejection (CME) events, particularly interplanetary CMEs carrying southward magnetic fields that reconnect with Earth's magnetosphere; and 2) the sustained impact of coronal interaction regions (CIRs) generated by high-speed coronal hole flows on Earth's magnetosphere. Strong geomagnetic storms can severely threaten the on-orbit safety of spacecraft, disrupt radio communications and navigation systems, and even paralyze ground-based power grids.

[0003] Existing geomagnetic storm prediction methods mainly rely on post-hoc identification of solar activity and empirical model extrapolation: 1. Empirical models based on CME parameters. When a CME is observed by a coronagraph (such as SOHO / LASCO), forecasters or automated systems measure its sky-plane velocity, angular width, source region location, and other parameters, combining these with empirical models to predict its arrival time at Earth and the intensity of the geomagnetic storm it may trigger (usually measured by the Dst or Kp index). These methods heavily rely on accurate measurements of the initial CME parameters and struggle to precisely determine the direction of its internal magnetic field (especially the crucial southward component), leading to significant forecast uncertainty.

[0004] 2. Statistical Relationships Based on Coronal Hole Characteristics. This approach identifies coronal holes by analyzing extreme ultraviolet (EUV) images, measuring their area, location, and other characteristics, and establishing empirical relationships between these characteristics and subsequent geomagnetic activity levels based on historical statistical data. While this method has some predictive capability for recurring geomagnetic storms, it cannot accurately predict non-recurring mega-magnetic storms caused by coronal magnetic fields (CMEs), and its prediction accuracy for the timing and intensity of geomagnetic storms is limited.

[0005] 3. Numerical models. Models such as the WSA-Enlil model can simulate the propagation of solar wind parameters in interplanetary space. However, these models are computationally expensive, and their accuracy is limited by initial conditions and model physics, making them difficult to meet the needs of real-time operational forecasting.

[0006] In summary, existing technologies have the following shortcomings: First, the forecast information of CME and coronal holes is not effectively integrated, and they are often processed separately, ignoring their synergistic or competitive effects; second, they heavily rely on limited manually extracted parameters (such as velocity and area), failing to fully utilize the rich spatiotemporal evolution information contained in the original images; and third, the forecast models are mostly linear or empirical models, making it difficult to capture the complex nonlinear relationships in the solar wind-magnetospheric coupling system. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new method that can automatically, efficiently, and deeply integrate multi-source coronal observation images for accurate geomagnetic storm forecasting. Summary of the Invention

[0011] In one specific embodiment, in step S3, the second deep learning model is a multi-source adaptive three-dimensional convolutional neural network, and when training the second deep learning model to extract coronal hole evolution features, a morphology-aware loss function is introduced, determined according to the following formula: in, This is a morphological feature extraction function. For the first reconstructed by the decoder Coronal hole image, Indicates the first observation obtained Image of a coronal hole.

[0012] In one specific embodiment, step S4 includes: Step S41: Determine the attention weight of the coronal mass ejection dynamic features on the coronal hole evolution features, and obtain the modulated coronal hole evolution feature vector; Step S42: Determine the attention weight of coronal hole evolution features on coronal mass ejection dynamic features, and obtain the modulated coronal mass ejection dynamic feature vector. Step S43: The coronal hole evolution feature vector and the coronal mass ejection dynamic feature vector are concatenated, and a comprehensive feature vector is obtained through a multilayer perceptron.

[0013] In one specific embodiment, in step S5, the geomagnetic storm forecasting model is trained using a multi-task learning framework, and the total loss function of the geomagnetic storm forecasting model is determined by combining classification loss, regression loss, morphological perception loss, and physical constraint loss.

[0014] In one specific embodiment, the geomagnetic storm forecast result in step S5 includes: Classification results: The probability of geomagnetic storms of different levels occurring within the next 1 to 3 days is predicted; the levels are classified according to thresholds of the Dst or Kp index; and / or, Regression results: Predict the Dst index or Kp index value at a specific future time point.

[0015] To achieve the same inventive objective, this invention also provides a geomagnetic storm forecasting system based on the fusion of multi-source continuous coronal observation images, comprising: Image acquisition module: used to acquire continuous time series of observation images of coronal mass ejections and coronal holes; CME Feature Extraction Module: Used to extract dynamic feature vectors of coronal mass ejections from a sequence of observed images of coronal mass ejections using a first deep learning model; Coronal hole feature extraction module: used to extract coronal hole evolution feature vectors from coronal hole observation image sequences using a second deep learning model; Feature fusion module: used to fuse the dynamic feature vector of the coronal mass ejection and the feature vector of the coronal hole evolution to obtain a comprehensive feature vector; Result acquisition module: used to input the comprehensive feature vector into the geomagnetic storm forecast model to obtain the geomagnetic storm forecast results for a specified time period in the future; the geomagnetic storm forecast results include the probability of geomagnetic storm occurrence or the predicted value of geomagnetic index determined based on the geomagnetic index threshold.

[0016] In one specific embodiment, in the CME feature extraction module, the first deep learning model is an improved multi-source adaptive 3D convolutional neural network, used to extract spatiotemporal features from the coronal mass ejection observation image sequence; the multi-source adaptive 3D convolutional neural network processes multi-source data through a multi-source adaptive convolutional kernel mechanism, and the convolutional kernel weights are obtained by modulating a shared basic convolutional kernel through a source feature embedding vector according to the following formula: in, For the first Adaptive convolution kernels for each data source To share the basic convolutional kernel, For the modulation matrix, For the first Embedding features of a data source This represents element-wise multiplication.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: (1) End-to-end automation of the forecast process improves efficiency and objectivity.

By introducing a bidirectional cross-modal attention mechanism, the model can dynamically learn the relative importance of CME features and coronal hole features in the forecast, thereby enhancing its understanding of complex solar activity scenarios. Simultaneously, the introduction of morphological and physical relationship constraints into the loss function guides the model's learning process to conform to known physical laws, which not only improves forecast accuracy, especially for strong geomagnetic storms, but also enhances the model's interpretability and generalization ability.

[0021] (5) It has great potential for business applications and meets the needs of real-time forecasting. The method has a clear modular design. Once the model is trained, the computational efficiency in the online prediction stage is high, and it can quickly process real-time data streams, meeting the strict timeliness requirements of space weather business forecasting. It has the potential to be directly applied to business platforms. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

[0025] Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar symbols denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the invention, and should not be construed as limiting the invention.

[0026] Example 1 One embodiment of the present invention provides a geomagnetic storm prediction method based on the fusion of multi-source continuous coronal observation images, referring to... Figure 1 As shown, it includes: Step S1: Acquire continuous time series of coronal mass ejection and coronal hole observation images; In a specific embodiment of the present invention, step S1 includes: Step S11: Acquire a sequence of coronal mass ejection (CME) observation images and a sequence of coronal hole observation images from at least two different observation satellites or instruments; Step S12: Preprocess the acquired image sequence, including image alignment, noise reduction, pixel value normalization, and region of interest extraction.

[0027] Specifically, continuous time-series corona observation image data are acquired from solar observation satellites (such as SDO, SOHO, and STEREO). The data includes: Coronal mass ejection (CME) image sequence: mainly from continuous observation images from coronagraphs (such as LASCO / C2, C3), used to capture the burst and propagation process of CMEs.

[0028] Coronal hole (CH) image sequence: mainly from continuous observation images from extreme ultraviolet telescopes (such as SDO / AIA193Å), used to monitor changes in the area, shape and location of coronal holes.

[0029] The acquired images are preprocessed, including alignment, noise reduction, normalization, and region of interest (ROI) extraction.

[0030] Download the C2 and C3 band coronagraph image sequence with a temporal resolution of 30 minutes within the most recent 24 hours from the LASCO instrument database on the SOHO satellite. Download the 193 Å extreme ultraviolet image sequence for the same time period from the AIA instrument database on the SDO satellite. All images were preprocessed, including image alignment based on solar center coordinates, median filtering for noise reduction, pixel value normalization to the [0,1] interval, and uniform cropping of a 512x512 pixel region of interest centered on the heliocenter.

[0031] Step S2: Using the first deep learning model, extract the dynamic feature vector of coronal mass ejection from the sequence of observed images; In a specific embodiment of the present invention, in step S2, the first deep learning model is an improved multi-source adaptive three-dimensional convolutional neural network, used to extract spatiotemporal features from the coronal mass ejection observation image sequence; the multi-source adaptive three-dimensional convolutional neural network processes multi-source data through a multi-source adaptive convolutional kernel mechanism, and the convolutional kernel weights are obtained by modulating the shared basic convolutional kernel through the source feature embedding vector according to the following formula: in, For the first Adaptive convolution kernels for each data source To share the basic convolutional kernel, For the modulation matrix, For the first Embedding features of a data source This represents element-wise multiplication. These are learnable parameters.

[0032] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, in step S2, the first deep learning model further includes a cross-source feature alignment and fusion mechanism to fuse feature maps from different data sources according to the following formula: in, According to the source Interpolation alignment operations performed on the spatial-temporal resolution parameters. These are adaptive weights computed via an attention mechanism, where K represents the number of feature maps from different data sources. Indicates the spatial-temporal resolution parameter. This represents the corona feature map from the k-th data source.

[0033] Image sequences from LASCO C2 and C3 are used as two data sources and input into the MSA-3DCNN network. The network first embeds vectors based on the characteristics of the two data sources (e.g., embedding e_c2 at C2 resolution and e_c3 at C3 resolution), and then modulates a shared basic convolutional kernel using a modulation formula to generate source-specific convolutional kernels. After extracting features separately, a cross-source attention fusion formula is used to obtain the fused CME dynamic feature vector f_CME (dimension 1024). The AIA 193Å image sequence is input into another structurally similar MSA-3DCNN branch (which can share some of the underlying weights with the CME branch) to extract the coronal hole evolution feature vector f_CH (dimension 512). When training this branch, an additional morphological awareness loss L_shape is introduced to constrain the image reconstructed by the decoder to maintain consistency with the original image in morphological features (such as area and roundness).

[0034] f_CME and f_CH are fused using a bidirectional cross-modal attention mechanism. First, the attention weight β_{CME→CH} for CME→CH is calculated to obtain the enhanced coronal hole feature f_CH'; similarly, the attention weight for CH→CME is calculated to obtain f_CME'. Finally, the two are concatenated and passed through an MLP to output the final comprehensive feature vector f_fused (dimension 1536).

[0035] Step S3: Extract coronal hole evolution feature vectors from the coronal hole observation image sequence using a second deep learning model; In a specific embodiment of the present invention, in step S3, the second deep learning model is a multi-source adaptive three-dimensional convolutional neural network, and when training the second deep learning model to extract coronal hole evolution features, a morphology-aware loss function is introduced, which is determined according to the following formula: in, For morphological feature extraction functions, For the first reconstructed by the decoder Coronal hole image, Indicates the first observation obtained Image of a coronal hole.

[0036] Step S4: Fuse the dynamic feature vector of the coronal mass ejection and the feature vector of the coronal hole evolution to obtain a comprehensive feature vector; In a specific embodiment of the present invention, step S4 includes: Step S41: Determine the attention weight of the coronal mass ejection dynamic features on the coronal hole evolution features, and obtain the modulated coronal hole evolution feature vector; Step S42: Determine the attention weight of coronal hole evolution features on coronal mass ejection dynamic features, and obtain the modulated coronal mass ejection dynamic feature vector. Step S43: The coronal hole evolution feature vector and the coronal mass ejection dynamic feature vector are concatenated, and a comprehensive feature vector is obtained through a multilayer perceptron.

[0037] Step S5: Input the comprehensive feature vector into the geomagnetic storm forecast model to obtain the geomagnetic storm forecast results for a specified time period in the future; the geomagnetic storm forecast results include the probability of geomagnetic storm occurrence or the predicted value of geomagnetic index determined based on the geomagnetic index threshold; In a specific embodiment of the present invention, in step S5, the geomagnetic storm forecasting model is trained using a multi-task learning framework, and the total loss function of the geomagnetic storm forecasting model is determined by combining classification loss, regression loss, morphological perception loss and physical constraint loss.

[0038] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the geomagnetic storm forecast result in step S5 includes: Classification results: The probability of geomagnetic storms of different levels occurring within the next 1 to 3 days is predicted; the levels are classified according to thresholds of the Dst or Kp index; and / or, Regression results: Predict the Dst index or Kp index value at a specific future time point.

[0039] The world's largest Kp index for the next 24 hours after obtaining the corresponding time period from the geomagnetic index data center.

[0040] Define the label: If the maximum Kp ≥ 6, the label is "Geomagnetic storm" (Category 1); otherwise, it is "No geomagnetic storm" (Category 0).

[0041] Associate the f_fused corresponding to each image sequence sample with the binary classification label to construct the training dataset.

[0042] Construct a multi-task learning model. The input layer has 1536 nodes. The model has two output heads: Classification Header: After passing through two fully connected layers (768 and 256 nodes), the Softmax function is used to output the probabilities of the two classes.

[0043] Regression Head: After passing through two fully connected layers (768 and 256 nodes), it outputs a scalar that predicts the maximum Kp exponent value for the next 24 hours.

[0044] Loss function: The total loss is a weighted sum: L_total = λ1 * L_cls + λ2 * L_reg + λ3 * L_shape + λ4 * L_phy. Where L_phy is the physical constraint loss, for example, the constrained prediction Kp value is positively correlated with the CME velocity v_CME estimated from the image. We set λ1=1.0, λ2=0.5, λ3=0.2, λ4=0.1.

[0045] The model is trained using historical data from the past 10 years (e.g., 2012-2022) as the training set and employing the Adam optimizer.

[0046] A geomagnetic storm warning is issued based on the geomagnetic storm forecast results. The latest SOHO and SDO image data are acquired in real time, and steps S1 to S2 are repeated to obtain the current f_fused value. f_fused is then input into a pre-trained model. The model outputs the probability P of a "major geomagnetic storm". If P exceeds a preset threshold (e.g., 0.7), a warning message stating "a major geomagnetic storm may occur within the next 24 hours (Kp≥6)" is automatically generated and issued.

[0047] Example 2 One embodiment of the present invention provides a geomagnetic storm prediction system based on the fusion of multi-source continuous coronal observation images, referring to... Figure 2 As shown, it includes: Image acquisition module 10: used to acquire continuous time series observation images of coronal mass ejections and coronal holes; CME Feature Extraction Module 20: Used to extract the dynamic feature vector of the coronal mass ejection from the observation image sequence of the coronal mass ejection using a first deep learning model; Coronal hole feature extraction module 30: used to extract coronal hole evolution feature vectors from the coronal hole observation image sequence using a second deep learning model; Feature fusion module 40: used to fuse the dynamic feature vector of the coronal mass ejection and the feature vector of the coronal hole evolution to obtain a comprehensive feature vector; Result acquisition module 50: used to input the comprehensive feature vector into the geomagnetic storm forecast model to obtain the geomagnetic storm forecast results for a specified time period in the future; the geomagnetic storm forecast results are based on the geomagnetic index threshold to determine the probability of geomagnetic storm occurrence or the predicted value of the geomagnetic index; Alarm output module 60: Used to issue geomagnetic storm alarms based on the geomagnetic storm forecast results.

[0048] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, in the CME feature extraction module 20, the first deep learning model is an improved multi-source adaptive three-dimensional convolutional neural network to extract spatiotemporal features from image sequences; the multi-source adaptive three-dimensional convolutional neural network processes multi-source data through a source adaptive convolutional kernel mechanism, and the convolutional kernel weights are obtained by modulating the shared basic convolutional kernels through the source feature embedding vector according to the following formula: in, For the first Adaptive convolution kernels for each data source To share the basic convolutional kernel, For the modulation matrix, For the first Embedding features of a data source This represents element-wise multiplication. These are learnable parameters.

[0049] Data source: Coronagraph images using both SOHO / LASCO (Sun-Earth connection view) and STEREO-A / COR (lateral view).

[0050] Feature embedding: Define a feature embedding vector e_k for each data source, which contains information such as: spatial resolution, the heliocentric latitude and longitude of the satellite (to reflect the difference in viewpoint), and noise level estimate.

[0051] Feature Alignment and Fusion: The feature maps Y_LASCO and Y_STEREO of LASCO and STEREO differ significantly in spatial scale and viewpoint. Using a learnable interpolation function, Resize, they are aligned to a unified spatial-temporal grid based on their resolution parameter θ_k. Then, a cross-source attention mechanism is used to calculate the weights α_LASCO and α_STEREO, and the weighted sum is obtained to obtain the fused CME features. This allows the model to comprehensively utilize frontal and side viewpoint information, more accurately determining the 3D propagation direction of the CME and whether it is facing the Earth.
