PV power intra‐day predictions using PDE models of polynomial networks based on operational calculus

Abstract

Precise daily forecasts of photo-voltaic (PV) power production are necessary for its planning, utilisation and integration into the electrical grid. PV power is conditioned by the current amount of specific solar radiation components. Numerical weather prediction systems are usually run every 6 h and provide only rough local prognoses of cloudiness with a delay. Statistical methods can predict PV power, considering a specific plant situation. Their intra-day models are usually more precise if rely only on the latest data observations and power measurements. Differential polynomial neural network (D-PNN) is a novel neuro-computing technique based on analogies with brain pulse signal processing. D-PNN decomposes the general partial differential equation (PDE), being able to describe the local atmospheric dynamics, into specific sub-PDEs in its nodes. These are converted using adapted procedures of operational calculus to obtain the Laplace images of unknown node functions, which are inverse L-transformed to obtain the originals. D-PNN can select from dozens of input variables to produce applicable sum PDE components which can extend, one by one, its composite models towards the optima. The PDE models are developed with historical spatial data from the estimated optimal numbers of the last days for each 1-9-h inputs-output timeshift to predict clear sky index in the trained time-horizon.

Power quality approximation for household equipment load combinations using a stepwise growth in input parameters of AI models

“…D-PNN employs the standard GMDH computing approach based on 2-variable processing polynomial functions without an activation, calculated to produce node output and compose ratio- or periodic components, inversely transformed and summed in the PDE model. The sine and cosine Laplace images of sub-PDE derivatives 30 can be used to model distorted partial-wave functions at the nodes. This periodic PDE conversion, used to represent corrupted PQ cycles, allows one to obtain a better approximation ability than using a separate polynomial-type model.…”

“…The picture is the eight sports characteristic pictures from the attack from the middle of the ball to the goal. Through image reconstruction, a panoramic view of the whole process is obtained [11]. From the reconstructed panorama, the combination line of passing and receiving for the offensive midfielder is obtained as shown in Figure 3: According to the offensive strength, the offensive midfielder's adequate passing directions, namely, to the right and pass back.…”
