“…Predicting electrical consumption is a challenging subject that necessitates the evaluation of enormous quantities of data as well as the application of powerful machine learning algorithms. Since its capacity to recognize temporal and spatial trends in data, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have emerged as a viable option for electricity demand prediction [ 22 ]. Nevertheless, developing an effective CNN framework for electricity prediction is a difficult process since various aspects, such as the number of layers, the size of the filters, and the activation functions utilized in each layer, must be carefully considered [ 23 ].…”
