In this paper, we presented the performance of forecasting model and error correction will affect the accuracy of short-term load forecasting. Least squares support vector machines (LS-SVM) based on improved particle swarm optimization is selected as load forecasting model. Forecasting accuracy and generalization performance of LS-SVM depend on selection of its parameters greatly. Adaptive part...

drought is random and nonlinear phenomenon and using linear stochastic models, nonlinear artificial neural network and hybrid models is advantaged for drought forecasting. this paper presents the performances of autoregressive integrated moving average (arima), direct multi-step neural network (dmsnn), recursive multi-step neural network (rmsnn), hybrid stochastic neural network of directive ap...

Hybrid model is a popular forecasting model in renewable energy related forecasting applications. Wind speed forecasting, as a common application, requires fast and accurate forecasting models. This paper introduces an Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) followed by a k Nearest Neighbor (kNN) hybrid model for wind speed forecasting. Two configurations of EMD-kNN are discussed in details: an EMD-...

‎This paper has two aims. The first is forecasting inflation in Iran using Macroeconomic variables data in Iran (Inflation rate, liquidity, GDP, prices of imported goods and exchange rates) , and the second is comparing the performance of forecasting vector auto regression (VAR), Bayesian Vector-Autoregressive (BVAR), GARCH, time series and neural network models by which Iran's inflation is for...

The Sierpinski triangle is a fractal that is commonly used due to some of its characteristics and features. The Forex financial market is among the places wherein this trianglechr('39')s characteristics are effective in forecasting the prices and their direction changes for the selection of the proper trading strategy and risk reduction. This study presents a novel approach to the Sierpinski tr...

background: forecasting of air pollutants has become a popular topic of environmental research today. for this purpose, the artificial neural network (aan) technique is widely used as a reliable method for forecasting air pollutants in urban areas. on the other hand, the evolutionary polynomial regression (epr) model has recently been used as a forecasting tool in some environmental issues. in ...

Long term power load has a big impact on the development of industry of power. The forecasting models of linear systems even a single forecasting model of the nonlinear systems can not forecast the long term power load greatly. In the study, the combined forecasting model of nonlinear systems including chaos and fractal was established to improve the accuracy of the forecast. First, the charact...

Short term load forecasting (STLF) plays an important role in the economic and reliable operation ofpower systems. Electric load demand has a complex profile with many multivariable and nonlineardependencies. In this study, recurrent neural network (RNN) architecture is presented for STLF. Theproposed model is capable of forecasting next 24-hour load profile. The main feature in this networkis ...
