Three magnetic parameters including the maximum horizontal gradient, the length of the neutral line, and the number of singular points are extracted from SOHO/MDI longitudinal magnetograms as measures. Based on these pa- rameters, the sliding-window method is used to form the sequential data by adding three days evolutionary information. Con- sidering the imbalanced problem in dataset, the K-means clustering, as an unsupervised clustering algorithm, is used to convert imbalanced data to balanced ones. Finally, the learning vector quantity is employed to predict the flares level within 48 hours.
