Simulation-based deep learning for lightning localization using convolutional autoencoder and multilayer perceptron

Lightning-induced overvoltages are a major cause of faults and outages in overhead transmission systems, significantly affecting the reliability and operational continuity of power networks. Accurate and timely localization of lightning strikes is therefore essential for improvin...

Calibration of Event-Based Camera for High-Speed Observations of Lightning and Transient Luminous Events

Event-based vision sensors (EVSs) offer an innovative approach to optical sensing by responding solely to changes in photon flux with asynchronous pixels. This enables high-speed imaging with minimal data throughput and a large dynamical range > 120 dB. Despite their growing use...
