# Solar Flare Forecasting Labels
|
|
|
|
## Dataset Summary
|
|
|
|
This dataset provides binary labels for solar flare forecasting using a rolling window approach. Labels are generated based on both the **maximum flare intensity** and the **cumulative flare intensity** observed within each window. The data spans from 2010 to 2024 and is derived from NOAA GOES flare event listings.
|
|
|
|
## Supported Tasks and Applications
|
|
|
|
- `binary-classification`: Predict whether a given time window will contain a flare
|
|
- Maximum intensity: greater than or equals to M1.0.
|
|
- Cumulative intensity: greather than or equals to 10.
|
|
- `regression`: Predict Maximum intensity or cumulative intensity within a given time window
|
|

## Dataset Structure

|
|
### Data Files
|
|
|
|
- `train.csv`: Input data from January to June (6 months)
|
|
- `val.csv`: Input data from July to September (3 months)
|
|
- `test.csv`: Input data from October to December (3 months)
|
|
|
|
To create other train, validation, and test set, use these files
|
|
- `flare_cls_p1_1h.csv`: Input data from January to March
|
|
- `flare_cls_p2_1h.csv`: Input data from April to June
|
|
- `flare_cls_p3_1h.csv`: Input data from July to September
|
|
- `flare_cls_p4_1h.csv`: Input data from October to December
|
|
|
|
### Features
|
|
|
|
- Applies a rolling time window (24h window) to generate:
|
|
- `max_goes_class`: highest flare intensity/class in the 24-hour window
|
|
- `cumulative_index`: sum of sub-class values in the 24-hour window
|
|
- `label_max`: Binary label (`max_goes_class` ≥ M1.0)
|
|
- `label_cum`: Binary label (`cumulative_index` ≥ 10)
|
|
- Splits dataset into four seasonal subsets (3-month each)
|
|
- Supports optional filtering using an external index (e.g., image availability in SuryaBench)
|

Each labeled record includes:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
