Abstract: We describe the automatic system for interplanetary (IP) shocks prediction using observations from the ЕРАМ instrument onboard the ACE satellite. The proposed three-module cascade system architecture consists of IP shock onset detection module and two neural networks modules for dangerous IP shock type prediction and IP shock arrival time prediction. The proposed approach was verified on historical data of IP shocks for last solar cycle maximum (in 2000) that included both minor and moderate IP shocks and outperformed existing models.
