Automated Plasma Region Classification and Boundary Layer Identification Using Machine Learning

The accurate classification of plasma regions is a critical challenge in space science, with identifying dynamic boundary layers (BLs) being particularly complex. This study introduces a novel wavelet-decision tree classifier (WDTC) designed to automate BL detection. Unlike conventional machine lear...
