Aurora, which is attractive for many people, is an astronomical phenomenon related to many fields, such as interplanetary space, magnetosphere and ionosphere, and thus it is difficult to predict behaviors or shapes of aurora. The big goal of this research is to forecast them using observed data in different formats from different fields. To do that, we need training data which shows when and what types of aurora have appeared. In this paper, we evaluate three popular methods of automatic classification of images to classify auroral all-sky images. We found that two methods based on the local feature and the color histogram, both of which are expected to classify auroral all-sky images in detail, fail to capture characteristics of aurora in the preliminary experiment, while we obtained 92.3% of the classification accuracy based on auroral area, which can only classify whether an image contains aurora or not.
