摘要
提高短期电力负荷预测精度是保障电网安全稳定运行的技术措施之一,通过选取影响负荷的最优输入变量集合,建立高斯过程回归(Gaussian process regression,GPR)短期负荷预测模型。负荷预测建模输入变量的选取对预测精度有很大影响,首先采用随机森林(random forest,RF)算法给出输入变量重要性评分(variable importance measure,VIM),并对各输入变量影响程度进行排序,基于序列前向搜索策略确定最优输入变量集合,避免人工经验选取的不足。其次针对共轭梯度(conjugate gradient,CG)法求解高斯过程回归模型超参数时易陷入局部最优解,且存在优化性能依赖于初值选取、迭代次数难以确定的问题,采用改进粒子群优化(particle swarm optimization,PSO)算法搜索模型超参数,形成优化高斯过程回归预测模型。最后,算例测试表明该模型的有效性。
Improving the short-term load forecasting accuracy is one of the technical measures to ensure the safe and stable operation of the power grid. This paper establishes the short-term load forecasting model based on Gaussian process regression (GPR) by selecting the optimal set of input variables influencing the load consumption. The selection of input variables in load forecasting modeling has great influence on the forecasting accuracy. Firstly, we adopt random forest (RF) algorithm to obtain each input variable importance measure (VIM) and rank the input variables according to the influence degree. Based on the forward search strategy, the optimal input variable set can be determined, which can avoid the shortage of artificial experience. The conjugate gradient (CG) method is easy to fall into local optimal solution when solving the hyperparameters of Gaussian process regression (GPR) model, and the optimal performance depends on the selection of initial value, also the iteration number is difficult to be determined. In view of these problems, we use the improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to search the model hyperparameters, and develop the load forecasting model based on optimal GPR. Finally, the effectiveness of proposed model is illustrated through testing simulation.
