The modification of algorithms for the estimation of the fractal dimension for clouds images
The research addresses the development of methodology for estimating the fractal dimension of cloud formations. Images of the Earth’s cloud cover contain superimposed and partially overlapped different types of cloud cover. Taking into account that each type of cloudiness has different values of coefficients for radiation attenuation, the problem of separating cloud types is the most important when assessing the radiation balance. The most important feature used in the classification of cloudiness is the fractal dimension. At the same time, the estimates obtained by using “modern” methods and algorithms for estimating the fractal dimension significantly depend on the “positioning” of the object. The paper proposes an effective (in terms of accuracy) method for estimating the fractal dimension, which is invariant with respect to the “positioning” of an object.
