0;136;0c Deep Flare Net (NICT)

The Deep Flare Net (DeFN) model, which is a solar flare prediction model using AI, is introduced in this papge.

DeFN: The standard forecasteing model. The advantage is that it misses very few flares. It can predict flares that will occur within 24 hours for "X-class", "M-class and above",
and "C-class and above".

DeFN-Reliable
(DeFN-R):
The model with improved reliability of DeFN. The predicted probability presents the actual occurrence frequency. The user can set their own threshold for
prediction. (Nishizuka et al. 2020 ApJ) [Here]
DeFN-Quadro
(DeFN-Q):
The model that extends DeFN to 4-class prediction of "X, M, C, None". Flare size can be known more accurately. Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) prediction model is also added. (→ CME NET)
(Nishizuka et al. submitted.)
Operational
DeFN:
An extention of DeFN to a real-time operational system.
