3. 2. Automatic Classification of Snow Particles

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

   Author : Emma Axebrink; [2021]
   Keywords : Snow particles; Automatic Classification; CNN;

   Abstract : The simplest form of a snow particle is a hexagonal prism which can grow into a stellar crystal by growing branches from the six corners of the prism. The snow particle is affected by the temperature and supersaturation in the air, giving its unique form. Manual classification of snow particles based on shape is tedious work. READ MORE
