Segmentation of Data from Simulations and Observations - Evaluation and Outlook
Abstract
3D simulation models based on Magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) and Radiation hydrodynamics (RHD) equations give an insight into the evolution of magnetic field lines and convective motions. A 2D segmentation algorithm was applied to data of the Japanese/US/European space mission Hinode and its solar optical telescope (SOT) as well as on 3D models of the numerical simulation code ANTARES in order to study the solar granulation and evaluate the algorithm. As a next research step, the development of a 3D segmentation algorithm, adapted to the simulation models, is required for the purpose of extracting magnetic and convective phenomena, which furthermore enable an exact tracing of their evolution.
