A Neural Network Algorithm with Weight Decay for 2-6 Hour Ahead Wind Speed Forecasting

نویسنده

چکیده

A single layer feed forward neural network algorithm using back propagation, gradient descent and weight decay is proposed for the purpose of wind speed forecasting using only the observed hourly wind speeds, directions, temperatures and pressures observed at at a single site. The site data used for this experiment was 10 years worth of hourly ASOS data from the Bismarck North Dakota Regional Airport gathered from the NOAA ftp site which is available for users upon subscription. The experiment was coded in the R programming language using the package implementation nnet which implements a single layer feed forward neural network with an optional weight decay factor.

Hour-Ahead Wind Speed and Power Forecasting Using Empirical Mode Decomposition

Operation of wind power generation in a large farm is quite challenging in a smart grid owing to uncertain weather conditions. Consequently, operators must accurately forecast wind speed/power in the dispatch center to carry out unit commitment, real power scheduling and economic dispatch. This work presents a novel method based on the integration of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) with arti...

Day-Ahead Wind Power Forecasting Using a Two-Stage Hybrid Modeling Approach Based on SCADA and Meteorological Information, and Evaluating the Impact of Input-Data Dependency on Forecasting Accuracy

The power generated by wind generators is usually associated with uncertainties, due to the intermittency of wind speed and other weather variables. This creates a big challenge for transmission system operators (TSOs) and distribution system operators (DSOs) in terms of connecting, controlling and managing power networks with high-penetration wind energy. Hence, in these power networks, accura...
