Hybrid Ensemble Deep Learning-Based Approach for Time Series Energy Prediction

Abstract

The energy manufacturers are required to produce an accurate amount of energy by meeting the energy requirements at the end-user side. Consequently, energy prediction becomes an essential role in the electric industrial zone. In this paper, we propose the hybrid ensemble deep learning model, which combines multilayer perceptron (MLP), convolutional neural network (CNN), long short-term memory (LSTM), and hybrid CNN-LSTM to improve the forecasting performance. These DL architectures are more popular and better than other machine learning (ML) models for time series electrical load prediction. Therefore, hourly-based energy data are collected from Jeju Island, South Korea, and applied for forecasting. We considered external features associated with meteorological conditions affecting energy. Two-year training and one-year testing data are preprocessed and arranged to reform the times series, which are then trained in each DL model. The forecasting results of the proposed ensemble model are evaluated by using mean square error (MSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). Error metrics are compared with DL stand-alone models such as MLP, CNN, LSTM, and CNN-LSTM. Our ensemble model provides better performance than other forecasting models, providing minimum MAPE at 0.75%, and was proven to be inherently symmetric for forecasting time-series energy and demand data, which is of utmost concern to the power system sector.

Probabilistic Solar Proxy Forecasting With Neural Network Ensembles

“…For example, there may be periods of time where an MLP outperforms an LSTM (or other models). A hybrid ensemble approach like (Phyo & Byun, 2021), will be considered as well. In this work, we will evaluate the performance of combining the ensemble prediction across multiple model types, leveraging their differing skill.…”

Five Strategies for Bias Estimation in Artificial Intelligence-based Hybrid Deep Learning for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome COVID-19 Lung Infected Patients using AP(ai)Bias 2.0: A Systematic Review

“…Note that HDL is not same as ensemble or Hybrid Ensemble Deep Learning Model (HEDL). This is because ensemble is a combination of several classification methods, while HEDL is combination of ensemble and hybrid [70]. The main novelty of our study was the analytical design of three methods RBM, RBA, RBS, and subsequently validated against two of the previously developed non-randomized AI strategies such as ROBINS-I, and PROBAST.…”
