Flare7K: A Phenomenological Nighttime Flare Removal Dataset [PDF]
Artificial lights commonly leave strong lens flare artifacts on images captured at night. Nighttime flare not only affects the visual quality but also degrades the performance of vision algorithms. Existing flare removal methods mainly focus on removing daytime flares and fail in nighttime.

Solar Flares and Coronal Mass Ejections: A Statistically Determined Flare Flux-CME Mass Correlation [PDF]
In an effort to examine the relationship between flare flux and corresponding CME mass, we temporally and spatially correlate all X-ray flares and CMEs in the LASCO and GOES archives from 1996 to 2006. We cross-reference 6,733 CMEs having well-measured masses against 12,050 X-ray flares having position information as determined from their optical ...

Statistical study of magnetic non-potential measures in confined and eruptive flares [PDF]
Using the HMI/SDO vector magnetic field observations, we studied the relation of degree of magnetic non-potentiality with the observed flare/CME in active regions. From a sample of 77 flare/CME cases, we found a general relation that degree of non-potentiality is positively correlated with the flare strength and the associated CME speeds.

The Shape of M Dwarf Flares in Kepler Light Curves [PDF]
Ultra-precise light curves from Kepler provide the best opportunity to determine rates and statistical properties of stellar flares. From 11 months of data on the active M4 dwarf, GJ 1243, we have built the largest catalog of flares for a single star: over 6100 events.

Unprecedented Fine Structure of a Solar Flare Revealed by the 1.6~m New Solar Telescope [PDF]
Solar flares signify the sudden release of magnetic energy and are sources of so called space weather. The fine structures (below 500 km) of flares are rarely observed and are accessible to only a few instruments world-wide.

Modelling ignition probability for human- and lightning-caused wildfires in Victoria, Australia [PDF]
Wildfires pose a significant risk to people and property, which is expected to grow with urban expansion into fire-prone landscapes and climate change causing increases in fire extent, severity and frequency.

Atypical clinical presentation of rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Introduction. Rheumatoid arthritis is a systemic autoimmune disease with inflammation of the joints as its hallmark. Extra-articular manifestations affect nearly half of the patients either at the onset of disease or later during the disease course. Case

FLARE: Defending Federated Learning Against Model Poisoning Attacks via Latent Space Representations
Federated learning (FL) has been shown vulnerable to a new class of adversarial attacks, known as model poisoning attacks (MPA), where one or more malicious clients try to poison the global model by sending carefully crafted local model updates to the ...

Measurement of magnetic field and relativistic electrons along a solar flare current sheet [PDF]
In the standard model of solar flares, a large-scale reconnection current sheet is postulated to be the central engine for powering the flare energy release1–3 and accelerating particles4–6.
