Portfolio theory assumes that investors accept risk. This means thatin the equal rate of return on the two assets, the assets were chosenthat have a lower risk level. Modern portfolio theory is accepted byinvestors who believe that they are not cope with the market. Sothey keep many different types of securities in order to access theoptimum efficiency rate that is close to the rate of return o...

This paper presents a new approach for short-term load forecasting (STLF). Curve fitting prediction and time series models are used for hourly loads forecasting of the week days. The curve fitting prediction (CFP) technique combined with genetic algorithms (GAs) is used for obtaining the optimum parameters of Gaussian model to obtain a minimum error between actual and forecasted load. A new tec...

With the development of economy and the progress of science, the proportion of electrified railway load in the power gird has been keeping on increasing, which impacts the short-term forecasting in load a lot, therefore, it is very important to analyze short-term load of electrified railway forecasting. This paper analyzes the power gird load-forecasting considering the influence of the electri...

Gaussian processes are a state-of-the-art method for learning models from data. Data with an underlying periodic structure appears in many areas, e.g., in climatology or robotics. It is often important to predict the long-term evolution of such a time series, and to take the inherent periodicity explicitly into account. In a Gaussian process, periodicity can be accounted for by an appropriate k...

This paper deals with a neural network approach for Short term wind speed forecasting. Now a day, short-term wind speed forecasts have become gradually more important for the power system management or energy trading due to the large penetration of wind power technology and development of wind energy markets. In this new era, short-term wind speed forecasting is necessary for producers and cons...

This paper proposes a structure for long-term energy demand forecasting. The proposed hybrid approach, called HPLLNF, uses the local linear neuro-fuzzy (LLNF) model as the forecaster and utilizes the Hodrick–Prescott (HP) filter for extraction of the trend and cyclic components of the energy demand series. Besides, the sophisticated technique of mutual information (MI) is employed to select the...

Load forecasting constitutes an important tool for efficient planning and operation of power systems and its significance has been intensifying particularly, because of the recent movement towards open energy markets and the need to assure high standards on reliability. Accurate load forecasting is of great importance for power system operation. It is the basis of economic dispatch, hydrotherma...
