Short-Term Demand Forecasting Method in Power Markets Based on the KSVM–TCN–GBRT

Abstract

With the consumption of new energy and the variability of user activity, accurate and fast demand forecasting plays a crucial role in modern power markets. This paper considers the correlation between temperature, wind speed, and real-time electricity demand and proposes a novel method for forecasting short-term demand in the power market. Kernel Support Vector Machine is first used to classify real-time demand in combination with temperature and wind speed, and then the temporal convolutional network (TCN) is used to extract the temporal relationships and implied information of day-ahead demand. Finally, the Gradient Boosting Regression Tree is used to forecast daily and weekly real-time demand based on electrical, meteorological, and data characteristics. The validity of the method was verified using a dataset from the ISO-NE (New England Electricity Market). Comparative experiments with existing methods showed that the method could provide more accurate demand forecasting results.

“…The mainstream algorithm of the deep learning model applied to time series data modeling and prediction is still recurrent neural network (RNN) and its improved algorithm. The temporal convolutional network (TCN) model is a convolutional neural network model with a particular structure, which is better than RNN in time data processing tasks [14][15][16]. TCN has a back-propagation path different from the input sequence in time direction [17], which avoids the gradient explosion or disappearance problem that often occurs in the RNN [18].…”

AI-Based Holistic Model for Decision-Support System in Inventory Optimization using deep Learning

“…The AI decision-support system utilizes optimization methods to determine the most economical inventory rules tailored to specific firm objectives and constraints. The model utilizes mathematical optimization techniques to generate optimal solutions that address conflicting objectives and compromises, such as reducing carrying costs, preventing stockouts, and optimizing order quantities [6]- [10]. The system may adjust to evolving market conditions and growing business needs through ongoing analysis of data feedback and enhancing its suggestions, resulting in long-term performance enhancement.…”
