文摘Weather forecasts from numerical weather prediction models play a central role in solar energy forecasting,where a cascade of physics-based models is used in a model chain approach to convert forecasts of solar irradiance to solar power production.Ensemble simulations from such weather models aim to quantify uncertainty in the future development of the weather,and can be used to propagate this uncertainty through the model chain to generate probabilistic solar energy predictions.However,ensemble prediction systems are known to exhibit systematic errors,and thus require post-processing to obtain accurate and reliable probabilistic forecasts.The overarching aim of our study is to systematically evaluate different strategies to apply post-processing in model chain approaches with a specific focus on solar energy:not applying any post-processing at all;post-processing only the irradiance predictions before the conversion;post-processing only the solar power predictions obtained from the model chain;or applying post-processing in both steps.In a case study based on a benchmark dataset for the Jacumba solar plant in the U.S.,we develop statistical and machine learning methods for postprocessing ensemble predictions of global horizontal irradiance(GHI)and solar power generation.Further,we propose a neural-network-based model for direct solar power forecasting that bypasses the model chain.Our results indicate that postprocessing substantially improves the solar power generation forecasts,in particular when post-processing is applied to the power predictions.The machine learning methods for post-processing slightly outperform the statistical methods,and the direct forecasting approach performs comparably to the post-processing strategies.

文摘Electrical load forecasting is very crucial for electrical power systems’planning and operation.Both electrical buildings’load demand and meteorological datasets may contain hidden patterns that are required to be investigated and studied to show their potential impact on load forecasting.The meteorological data are analyzed in this study through different data mining techniques aiming to predict the electrical load demand of a factory located in Riyadh,Saudi Arabia.The factory load and meteorological data used in this study are recorded hourly between 2016 and 2017.These data are provided by King Abdullah City for Atomic and Renewable Energy and Saudi Electricity Company at a site located in Riyadh.After applying the data pre-processing techniques to prepare the data,different machine learning algorithms,namely Artificial Neural Network and Support Vector Regression(SVR),are applied and compared to predict the factory load.In addition,for the sake of selecting the optimal set of features,13 different combinations of features are investigated in this study.The outcomes of this study emphasize selecting the optimal set of features as more features may add complexity to the learning process.Finally,the SVR algorithm with six features provides the most accurate prediction values to predict the factory load.
文摘The rapid development of technology has led to an ever-increasing demand for electrical energy.In the context of Timor-Leste,which still relies on fossil energy sources with high operational costs and significant environmental impacts,electricity load forecasting is a strategic measure to support the energy transition towards the Net Zero Emission(NZE)target by 2050.This study aims to utilize historical electricity load data for the period 2013–2024,as well as data on external factors affecting electricity consumption,to forecast electricity load in Timor-Leste in the next 10 years(2025–2035).The forecasting results are expected to support efforts in energy distribution efficiency,reduce operational costs,and inform decisions related to the sustainable energy transition.The method used in this study consists of two main approaches:the causality method,represented by the econometric Principal Component Analysis(PCA)model,which involves external factors in the data processing process,and the time series method,utilizing the LSTM,XGBoost,and hybrid(LSTM+XGBoost)models.In the time series method,data processing is combined with two approaches:the sliding window and the rolling recursive forecast.The performance of each model is evaluated using the Root Mean Square Error(RMSE),Mean Absolute Error(MAE),and Mean Absolute Percentage Error(MAPE).The model with the lowest MAPE(<10%)is considered the best-performing model,indicating the highest accuracy.Additionally,a Monte Carlo simulation with 50,000 iterations was used to process the data and measure the prediction uncertainty,as well as test the calibration of the electricity load projection data.The results showed that the hybrid model(LSTM+XGBoost)with a rolling forecast recursive approach is the best-performing model in predicting electricity load in Timor-Leste.This model yields an RMSE of 75.76 MW,an MAE of 55.76 MW,and an MAPE of 5.27%,indicating a high level of accuracy.In addition,the model is also indicated as one that fits the characteristics of electricity load in Timor-Leste,as it produces the lowest percentage of forecasting error in predicting electricity load.The integration of the best model with Monte Carlo Simulation,which yields a p-value of 0.565,suggests that the results of electricity load projections for the period 2025–2035 are well-calibrated,reliable,accurate,and unbiased.

文摘The dynamics of vapor−liquid−solid(V−L−S)flow boiling in fluidized bed evaporators exhibit inherent complexity and chaotic behavior,hindering accurate prediction of pressure drop signals.To address this challenge,this study proposes an innovative hybrid approach that integrates wavelet neural network(WNN)with chaos analysis.By leveraging the Cross-Correlation(C−C)method,the minimum embedding dimension for phase space reconstruction is systematically calculated and then adopted as the input node configuration for the WNN.Simulation results demonstrate the remarkable effectiveness of this integrated method in predicting pressure drop signals,advancing our understanding of the intricate dynamic phenomena occurring with V−L−S fluidized bed evaporators.Moreover,this study offers a novel perspective on applying advanced data-driven techniques to handle the complexities of multi-phase flow systems and highlights the potential for improved operational prediction and control in industrial settings.

文摘Financial time series have been analyzed with a wide variety of models and approaches,some of which can forecast with great accuracy.However,most of these models,especially the machine learning ones,cannot show additional information for the decision maker or the financial analyst.The notion of causality is a concept that provides a more complete understanding of a problem beyond improved forecasts.In this study,we propose integrating the treatment/control concept of causality into a forecasting framework to better predict financial time series.Our results show that the proposed methodology outperforms classic econometric approaches such as ARIMA and Random Walk,as well as machine learning approaches without the proposed methodology.This improvement is statistically significant,as indicated by the Model Confidence Set test in the complete test set and quarterly analysis.
文摘In this study,we examine the connectedness between the NASDAQ artificial intelligence index and sectoral cryptocurrency indices.Empirical analyses were conducted via the quantile‒quantile methodology and cross-multiquantilogram tests across 15 cryptocurrency sectors from June 1,2021,to May 28,2024.The results show that dynamic total spillovers primarily occur in extremely low and high quantiles,corresponding to the left and right tails of the return distributions.Net directional spillovers indicate the dominance of the AI sector over the cryptocurrency market,which intensifies during significant crashes or booms.The most substantial effect of AI is observed in the DeFi,NFT,and Smart Contracts sectors,highlighting the prominence of financial operation-based blockchain applications in their interaction with artificial intelligence.The cross-multiquantilogram results also suggest that developments in artificial intelligence dominate the cryptocurrency market and have high predictability in its price movements.On the basis of our findings,we recommend using the AI market as an early indicator for the cryptocurrency market and advise against combining these two asset groups in the same portfolio to maintain diversification benefits.
文摘Time series forecasting is important in the fields of finance,energy,and meteorology,but traditional methods often fail to cope with the complex nonlinear and nonstationary processes of real data.In this paper,we propose the FractalNet-LSTM model,which combines fractal convolutional units with recurrent long short-term memory(LSTM)layers to model time series efficiently.To test the effectiveness of the model,data with complex structures and patterns,in particular,with seasonal and cyclical effects,were used.To better demonstrate the obtained results and the formed conclusions,the model performance was shown on the datasets of electricity consumption,sunspot activity,and Spotify stock price.The result showed that the proposed model outperforms traditional approaches at medium forecasting horizons and demonstrates high accuracy for data with long-term and cyclical dependencies.However,for financial data with high volatility,the model’s efficiency decreases at long forecasting horizons,indicating the need for further adaptation.The findings suggest further adaptation.The findings suggest that integrating fractal properties into neural network architecture improves the accuracy of time series forecasting and can be useful for developing more accurate and reliable forecasting systems in various industries.

文摘Forecasting tropical cyclone(TC)activities has been a topic of great interest and research.Taiwan Island(TW)is one of the key regions that is highly exposed to TCs originated from the western North Pacific.Here,the authors utilize two mainstream reanalysis datasets for the period 1979-2013 and propose an effective statistical seasonal forecasting model-namely,the Sun Yat-sen University(SYSU)Model-for predicting the number of TC landfalls on TW based on the environmental factors in the preseason.The comprehensive predictor sampling and multiple linear regression show that the 850-hPa meridional wind over the west of the Antarctic Peninsula in January,the 300-hPa specific humidity over the open ocean southwest of Australia in January,the 300-hPa relative vorticity over the west of the Sea of Okhotsk in March,and the sea surface temperature in the South Indian Ocean in April,are the most significant predictors.The correlation coefficient between the modeled results and observations reaches 0.87.The model is validated by the leave-one-out and nine-fold cross-validation methods,and recent 9-yr observations(2014-2022).The Antarctic Oscillation,variabilities of the western Pacific subtropical high,Asian summer monsoon,and oceanic tunnel are the possible physical linkages or mechanisms behind the model result.The SYSU Model exhibits a 98%hit rate in 1979-2022(43 out of 44),suggesting an operational potential in the seasonal forecasting of TC landfalls on TW.
文摘Based on ground observation data of relative humidity,the prediction performance of STNF and MIFS in each competition area during February 13-26,2024 was tested and evaluated by using two intelligent forecasting methods(STNF and MIFS).The results show that STNF had better performance in forecasting relative humidity in high-altitude areas,and was suitable for fine forecasting under complex terrain.MIFS improved the short-term forecast of some low-altitude stations,but the long-term reliability was insufficient.STNF method performed better than MIFS during 0-24 h.As the prediction time extended to 24-72 h,the errors of both methods showed a systematic increase trend.STNF had higher precision,lower root mean square error and smaller mean error in most regions under the background of most weather systems,showing its superiority as a forecasting method of relative humidity.However,the precision of MIFS was slightly higher than that of STNF in Liangcheng without system background,revealing that MIFS may also be an effective option in some specific conditions.

文摘Cryptocurrency is a remarkable financial innovation that has affected the financial system in fundamental ways.Its increasingly complex interactions with the conventional financial market make precisely forecasting its volatility increasingly challenging.To this end,we propose a novel framework based on the evolving multiscale graph neural network(EMGNN).Specifically,we embed a graph that depicts the interactions between the cryptocurrency and conventional financial markets into the predictive process.Furthermore,we employ hierarchical evolving graph structure learners to model the dynamic and scale-specific interactions.We also evaluate our framework’s robustness and discuss its interpretability by extracting the learned graph structure.The empirical results show that(i)cryptocurrency volatility is not isolated from the conventional market,and the embedded graph can provide effective information for prediction;(ii)the EMGNN-based forecasting framework generally yields outstanding and robust performance in terms of multiple volatility estimators,cryptocurrency samples,forecasting horizons,and evaluation criteria;and(iii)the graph structure in the predictive process varies over time and scales and is well captured by our framework.Overall,our work provides new insights into risk management for market participants and into policy formulation for authorities.

文摘Accurate Electric Load Forecasting(ELF)is crucial for optimizing production capacity,improving operational efficiency,and managing energy resources effectively.Moreover,precise ELF contributes to a smaller environmental footprint by reducing the risks of disruption,downtime,and waste.However,with increasingly complex energy consumption patterns driven by renewable energy integration and changing consumer behaviors,no single approach has emerged as universally effective.In response,this research presents a hybrid modeling framework that combines the strengths of Random Forest(RF)and Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average(ARIMA)models,enhanced with advanced feature selection—Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevancy and Maximum Synergy(MRMRMS)method—to produce a sparse model.Additionally,the residual patterns are analyzed to enhance forecast accuracy.High-resolution weather data from Weather Underground and historical energy consumption data from PJM for Duke Energy Ohio and Kentucky(DEO&K)are used in this application.This methodology,termed SP-RF-ARIMA,is evaluated against existing approaches;it demonstrates more than 40%reduction in mean absolute error and root mean square error compared to the second-best method.

文摘In this paper,we introduce TianXing,a transformer-based data-driven model designed with physical augmentation for skillful and efficient global weather forecasting.Previous data-driven transformer models such as Pangu-Weather,FengWu,and FuXi have emerged as promising alternatives for numerical weather prediction in weather forecasting.However,these models have been characterized by their substantial computational resource consumption during training and limited incorporation of explicit physical guidance in their modeling frameworks.In contrast,TianXing applies a linear complexity mechanism that ensures proportional scalability with input data size while significantly diminishing GPU resource demands,with only a marginal compromise in accuracy.Furthermore,TianXing proposes an explicit attention decay mechanism in the linear attention derived from physical insights to enhance its forecasting skill.The mechanism can reweight attention based on Earth's spherical distances and learned sparse multivariate coupling relationships,promptingTianXing to prioritize dynamically relevant neighboring features.Finally,to enhance its performance in mediumrange forecasting,TianXing employs a stacked autoregressive forecast algorithm.Validation of the model's architecture is conducted using ERA5 reanalysis data at a 5.625°latitude-longitude resolution,while a high-resolution dataset at 0.25°is utilized for training the actual forecasting model.Notably,the TianXing exhibits excellent performance,particularly in the Z500(geopotential height)and T850(temperature)fields,surpassing previous data-driven models and operational fullresolution models such as NCEP GFS and ECMWF IFS,as evidenced by latitude-weighted RMSE and ACC metrics.Moreover,the TianXing has demonstrated remarkable capabilities in predicting extreme weather events,such as typhoons.
