| Summary: | Abstract The prediction of high‐energy radiation belt electrons is vital for preventing their damage to satellites. Previous machine learning models mostly predict the fluxes of high‐energy electrons (hundreds of keV to MeV) in the outer radiation belt and slot region (L > 2.6). Here, we trained a double‐layer long short‐term memory (LSTM) neural network model and successfully predicted the spatial and temporal variations of the 108–749 keV electrons in the inner radiation belt (L ∼ 1.2–2.2) and slot region (L ∼ 2.2–3.2). Under different solar or geomagnetic conditions, the prediction efficiency of the present model maintains 0.6–0.99 in the inner belt and slot region, and its prediction error is less than 0.48. The high‐resolution (∼11 s) LSTM model could predict the rapid injection events of high‐energy electrons within several minutes in the radiation belts. |
