A Bayesian semi-parametric approach to cluster heterogeneous time series
Majority of time series clustering research is focused on calculating similarity metrics between individual series, which in conjunction with traditional clustering algorithm partitions the data into similar groups (clusters). A major challenge lies in obtaining partitions when the number of clusters is not known in advance. Another challenge in such a clustering problem is to apply known hiera...
متن کاملDescription of electricity generation technologies
This chapter describes the eight electricity generation technologies considered in this publication by illustrating the basic principles behind each form of electricity generation, the conventional sub-types for each technology, as well as their common application and specific technological characteristics. Lastly, it will outline certain characteristics of power plants for each technology, whi...
متن کاملA Semi-Parametric Time Series Approach in Modeling Hourly Electricity Loads
In this paper we develop a semi-parametric approach to model nonlinear relationships in serially correlated data. To illustrate the usefulness of this approach, we apply it to a set of hourly electricity load data. This approach takes into consideration the effect of temperature combined with those of timeof-day and type-of-day via nonparametric estimation. In addition, an ARIMA model is used t...
متن کاملA non-parametric structural hybrid modeling approach for electricity prices
We develop a stochastic model of zonal/regional electricity prices, designed to reflect information in fuel forward curves and aggregated capacity and load as well as zonal or regional price spreads. We use a nonparametric model of the supply stack that captures heat rates and fuel prices for all generators in the market operator territory, combined with an adjustment term to approximate conges...
متن کاملWhen Are Technologies Sustainable?
During the latter half of the twentieth century philosophers of science have devoted considerable attention to the incommensurability of competing scientific theories. This paper applies elements of these discussions to the question, "When Are Technologies Sustainable?" It identifies an incommensurability issue accompanying the topic of sustainable technological practices and locates it within ...
