This study employs the Long Short-Term Memory Fully Convolutional Network (LSTM-FCN) deep learning method to predict the amplitudes and peak times of Solar Cycles (SCs) 26 and 27 for both the entire solar disk and the northern and southern hemispheres. The experimental data comprises the monthly mean total Sunspot Number (SSN) data and the monthly mean northern and southern Hemispheric Sunspot Number (HSN) data, provided by the World Data Center — Sunspot Index and Long-term Solar Observations (WDC-SILSO). The experimental process tested the Input–Output Window Ratio (IOWR) from 4:1 to 14:1, and the results indicate that when the IOWR is 10:1, the normalized Relative RMSE (RRMSE) is minimized at 0.078. According to the prediction, SC 26 is expected to peak in June 2034 with an amplitude of 194.4, and SC 27 is expected to peak in July 2045 with an amplitude of 244.2. It was also found that SC 26 and SC 27 have northern and southern hemisphere asymmetry. This study demonstrates the potential application of the LSTM-FCN deep learning method in forecasting SCs, providing a new tool and approach for solar physics research.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54727,"journal":{"name":"New Astronomy","volume":"117 ","pages":"Article 102353"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143153391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In view of the huge amount of spectral data from the sky, it is necessary to find suitable automatic processing methods to meet the needs of the time. Based on DenseNet model and ResNet model, DRsm (DenseNet ResNet SoftMax) algorithm is built in this paper, which realizes the automatic classification of stellar spectra. There are 6 steps to the DRsm algorithm: (1) Normalization processing: The Min–max normalization function is used to normalize the stellar spectrum to speed up the algorithm. (2) Denoising processing: The Ces algorithm is employed to denoise the stellar spectrum by reducing the photon noise that affects the spectral observations. (3) Composite RGB image: Three channels of an RGB image, corresponding to the gray image generated by the same spectrum. By superimposing the same spectrum, the effective distinguishing features of the stellar spectrum become more apparent and subsequent work is made easier. Here, we have normalized the continuous spectrum of the stellar spectrum, so that the content shown in the RGB image is basically the spectral line information of the star spectrum. At the same time, we analyze the feasibility of data conversion (synthetic RGB image) : using the main spectral line information of the star spectrum as a reference, we investigate whether the relevant pixel position of the synthesized RGB image contains these features. (4) Data enhancement: The Bottom-hat transformation (Top-hat transformation, contrast enhancement algorithm) is used to enhance the converted data, so that the main distinguishing features of the star spectrum are more obvious. (5) Feature extraction: The ResNet model and DenseNet models are used to extract features from stellar spectra, and the RGB image with a scale of 64 × 64 is extracted as a one-dimensional feature vector. (6) Automatic classification: The feature vector is then sent to the SoftMax module where it is automatically classified. The loss function used by the SoftMax module is ‘data set loss + regular term loss’. When the DRsm algorithm is used to automatically classify the spectra of A, B, dM, F, G, gM and K-type stars with R-band signal-to-noise ratio greater than 30, the classification accuracy is 0.96. The classification accuracy of this method is notably higher than that of the CNN(Convolutional Neural Networks)+Bayes, CNN+KNN, CNN+SVM, CNN+AdaBoost, and CNN+RF algorithms, which achieved accuracies of 0.862, 0.876, 0.894, 0.868, and 0.889, respectively.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54727,"journal":{"name":"New Astronomy","volume":"116 ","pages":"Article 102349"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143095020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper fits the color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of 17 OCs using a tool called Powerful CMD, with the aim of studying the effect of inclusion of binary stars on the fitting of cluster CMDs with clear giant branches. The fitting results of these star clusters were analyzed and compared under two scenarios, i.e., single-star isochrone fitting and binary-star isochrone fitting. In the binary-star isochrone fitting, the binary fraction is greater than 0 and no larger than 1, which is determined by Powerful CMD based on the goodness of fit to the CMD. The research findings indicate that binaries enhance the goodness of fit for all sample star clusters. In particular, the fit to giant branches becomes better when binary stars are considered. Furthermore, binaries contribute to improving accuracy in determining the fundamental parameters such as age, color excess, and distance modulus for star clusters, because the parameter uncertainties become smaller when binary stars are included in theoretical models. Moreover, the distance modulus and age of clusters become larger when binary-star isochrones are used instead single-star isochrones.
