Resumo

All-sky images (ASI) are widely used for sky monitoring, particularly in solar energy generation applications. Alignment issues and interferences demand a detection process of problematic images. With high sampling frequencies (1-2 images per minute), automating this process is crucial for managing large datasets and enabling integration into automatic systems, which is the objective of this work. For this purpose, a robust ensemble model, using the ApproxHull and Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural networks combined with Multi Objective Genetic Algorithms (MOGA) tools, was developed to compute the cloud cover fraction of each image. By computing the deviation between this result and the one obtained by the equipment, and by assessing if it lies within prediction bounds obtained in the design phase, an automatic method for detecting anomalies in All-sky images was obtained. ASI data collected during the Green Ocean (GoAmazon) Experiment 2014/5 was employed. The proposed approach obtained a Probability of Interval Coverage (PICP) similar to the user- specified level of confidence for several sets within what was classified as a "good"dataset, while being able to detect anomalies found within a "bad"dataset.
