Abstract:

Accurate power load forecasting is conducive to ensuring the safe and economic operation of the power system. Aiming at the problems of low prediction accuracy and long time consuming of the current prediction algorithms, an improved deep learning (DL) short-term load forecasting model based on random forest (RF) algorithm and rough set theory (RST), namely RF-DL-RST, was proposed. Firstly, based on historical data, the model used RF algorithm to extract the key features that affected the load forecasting. Then, the key features and historical load data were trained as the input and output items of deep neural network (DNN), and the prediction results were corrected by RST. After that, the rough set method was used to revise the prediction results. Finally, the simulation was verified by an example. The results show that the prediction accuracy of the model is higher than that of a single DNN model and a model without RST revised.

Key words: power load forecasting, random forest (RF) algorithm, deep learning (DL), rough set theory (RST)
