TPE-based Short-Term Load Forecasting Neural Network Structure Design and Parameter Optimization Method

Short-term load forecasting is generally applied in power system real-time dispatching and day-ahead generation planning, which is of great significance for power system economic dispatching and safe operation of the system. Much research on short-term load forecasting using neural networks has been carried out at home and abroad. However, how to obtain the optimal network and structure evolution accurately and quickly has evolved into a key challenge for short-term load forecasting, because the prediction effect of the neural network method is more easily affected by the existing network structure and parameters, and the personality difference of the prediction object itself makes it difficult for the parameters to be reused. Aiming at this problem, this paper proposes a TPE-based neural network structure design and parameter optimization method for short-term load forecasting. This method realizes fast optimization of parameters of different types, structures, parameters, and input and output of deep neural networks, and is widely applied in Guangxi power grid. It is verified by an actual example that the method can effectively improve prediction accuracy.
