A method for forecasting alpine area load based on artificial neural network model

Due to the large scale of grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) power generation installations, accurate PV power forecasting is critical to the safe and economic operation of the electric power system. In the paper, by analyzing the influence of external ambient factors and the changing characteristics of PV modules with time, it is found that PV power generation is a nonlinear and time-varying process. This suggests that a certain single forecasting model is inadequate for representing actual generation characteristics, and it is difficult to obtain an accurate forecasting result. An adaptive back propagation (BP) neural network model adopting scrolling time window is proposed to solve the problem. Via an update of the training data of BP neural network with the scrolling time window, the forecasting model adapts to time and a changing external environment with the required modeling precision. Meanwhile, through evaluation of the forecasting performance in different time windows, an optimized time window can be determined to guarantee accuracy. Finally, using the actual operation data of a PV plant in Beijing, the approach is validated as being applicable for PV power forecasting and is able to effectively respond to the dynamic change of the PV power generation process. This improves the forecasting accuracy and also reduces computation complexity as compared with the conventional BP neural network algorithm.

Icing condition prediction of wind turbine blade by using artificial neural network based on modal frequency

Stock market crashes bring about huge economic loss, so predicting the stock market crashes is extremely important for both the investors and practitioners. Back propagation (BP) neural network performed greatly in data adaptability and fitting, it has been widely used for forecasting study in various fields. However, given the low frequency and lack of periodicity of stock market crashes, the BP neural network can hardly predict the intensively fluctuated stock prices accurately during the crashes. To resolve this issue, we introduced BP neural network into Log-periodic power law model, proposed the Log-periodic power law hybrid model based on the BP neural network. This combined approach could further capture the fluctuation trend and predict the volatility during the stock market crashes better. The experimental results showed that this hybrid model could predict the stock prices in different stock markets with a slightly increased accuracy. Moreover, its performance was more stable compared with BP neural network.

In order to improve the efficiency and accuracy of thermal and moisture comfort prediction of underwear, a new prediction model is designed by using principal component analysis method to reduce the dimension of related variables and eliminate the multi-collinearity relationship between variables, and then inputting the converted variables into genetic algorithm (GA) and BP neural network. In order to avoid the problems of slow convergence speed and easy falling into local minimum of Back Propagation (BP) neural network, this paper adopted GA to optimize the weights and thresholds of BP neural network, and utilized MATLAB software to program, and established the prediction models of BP neural network and GA–BP neural network. To verify the superiority of the model, the predicted result of GA–BP, PCA–BP and BP are compared with GA–BP neural network. The results show that PCA could improve the accuracy and adaptability of GA–BP neural network for thermal and moisture comfort prediction. PCA–GA–BP model is obviously superior to GA–BP, PCA–BP, BP, SVM and K-means prediction models, which could accurately predict thermal and moisture comfort of underwear. The model has better accuracy prediction and simpler structure.

For the purpose of analyzing the application of back propagation (BP) neural network model in retinal vascular segmentation of color fundus images, in this study, the traditional BP neural network was first improved by adopting the additional momentum method. Second, adaptive histogram, morphological background subtraction, Gauss preprocessing matching filter and Heisen matrix were used to enhance the image and extract the features. Third, the retinal vascular segmentation algorithm for color fundus images was constructed based on optimized BP neural network. Finally, the DRIVE and MESSIDOR data sets of color fundus images were introduced to compare the proposed algorithm with the convolutional neural network (CNN) and pulse-coupled neural network (PCNN) algorithms in terms of performance. In addition, the three algorithms were also compared in terms of the sensitivity (Se), specificity (Sp), accuracy (Ac), average operation time for each image and F1 value. The results show that the BP neural network algorithm proposed in this study shows obvious advantage over the other two algorithms in the segmentation of color fundus images. In the DRIVE data set, the Se (81.37%), Sp (90.55%) and Ac (95.82%) of BP algorithm are the highest among the three; in the MESSIDOR data set, the Se (85.22%), Sp (91.08%) and Ac (96.16%) of BP algorithm are also highest; in the DRIVE and MESSIDOR data sets, the operation time of BP algorithm is (28.46 ± 3.19 ms; 24.73 ± 4.81 ms, respectively), which are significantly less than the other two algorithms. Besides, the F1 value of the proposed algorithm is obviously higher than that the other two algorithms. As a result, it is concluded that compared with the CNN algorithm and the PCNN algorithm, the proposed algorithm is more effective in the retinal vascular segmentation of color fundus images; the capillaries have better connectivity, and the proposed algorithm can improve the segmentation Ac while reducing the operation time.

Photovoltaic power generation is fluctuation and intermittent, and the grid-connected operation of large-scale photovoltaic power plants may have an impact on the safe and stable economic operation of the power system. An effective way to solve the problem is to make scientific forecasts of the output power of PV power plants. In this paper, Back Propagation (BP) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network prediction models are established by using the historical values of actual power generation of Guhe Runneng Photovoltaic Power Station in Gaotang County of Liaocheng City in 2017. According to the characteristics of photovoltaic power fluctuation, the output power is treated as a set of digital signals for short-term PV power prediction, and a prediction model based on the Hilbert Huang Transform (HHT) power data decomposition is proposed. Through the analysis of an example, it can be concluded that after HHT, the prediction effect is significantly improved, and the accuracy of PV power prediction is improved. Moreover, compared with BP neural network, RBF neural network has smaller prediction error.

ecause of the importance of dust abatement by sprayer, this paper studies the characteristic of fogdrop generated by one kind of nozzle on basis of Back Propagation (BP) Neural Network, using Marvin-3000 type laser granularity instrument in lab. It is pointed that the maximum and minimum errors of widely used BP Neural Network are 2.18% and 0.61%, when we compute the fogdrop diameter computing repeatedly. In more general case, if the nozzle diameter change, the maximum and minimum errors using BP Neural Network are 1.92% and 0.34% by comparing with other’s work, while the errors are 2.13% and 1.50% when pressure change. The experimental results show that BP neural network is an effective tool to predict the variation of the non-linear fogdrop diameter. Furthermore, it is potential to be used in other kinds of fogdrop and real industry application.
