Using XGBoost Model with Feature Selection Techniques for Wind Speed Forecasting

Forecasting of Wind Speed Using Feature Selection and Neural Networks

Wind energy is rapidly increasing and it is becoming a significant contributor to the electricity grid. Wind speed is an important factor in wind power production and integration. This paper presents a wind speed forecasting using feature selection method and bagging neural network. Feature selection plays an essential role in the machine learning environment and especially in the prediction ta...

Wind Speed Forecasting Using Hybrid Wavelet Transform—ARMA Techniques

The objective of this paper is to develop a novel wind speed forecasting technique, which produces more accurate prediction. The Wavelet Transform (WT) along with the Auto Regressive Moving Average (ARMA) is chosen to form a hybrid whose combination is expected to give minimum Mean Absolute Prediction Error (MAPE). A simulation study has been conducted by comparing the forecasting results using...

Evaluation of Optimal Fuzzy Membership Function for Wind Speed Forecasting

In this paper, a new approach is proposed in order to select an optimal membership function for inputs of wind speed prediction system. Then using a fuzzy method and the stochastic characteristics of wind speed in the previous year, the wind speed modeling is performed and the wind speed for the future year will be predicted. In this proposed method, the average and the standard deviation of in...

A data-driven multi-model methodology with deep feature selection for short-term wind forecasting

Probabilistic Wind Speed Forecasting Using Ensembles and Bayesian Model Averaging

Probabilistic forecasts of wind speed are becoming critical as interest grows in wind as a clean and renewable source of energy, in addition to a wide range of other uses, from aviation to recreational boating. Statistical approaches to wind forecasting offer two particular challenges: the distribution of wind speeds is highly skewed, and wind observations are reported to the nearest whole knot...
