Deep Learning Approaches with Optimum Alpha for Energy Usage Forecasting

Abstract

Energy use is an essential aspect of many human activities, from individual to industrial scale. However, increasing global energy demand and the challenges posed by environmental change make understanding energy use patterns crucial. Accurate predictions of future energy consumption can greatly influence decision-making, supply-demand stability and energy efficiency. Energy use data often exhibits time-series patterns, which creates complexity in forecasting. To address this complexity, this research utilizes Deep Learning (DL), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), Long Short-term Memory (LSTM), Bidirectional LSTM (Bi-LSTM), and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) models. The main objective is to improve the accuracy of energy usage forecasting by optimizing the alpha value in exponential smoothing, thereby improving forecasting accuracy. The results showed that all DL methods experienced improved accuracy when using optimum alpha. LSTM has the most optimal MAPE, RMSE, and R2 values compared to other methods. This research promotes energy management, decision-making, and efficiency by providing an innovative framework for accurate forecasting of energy use, thus contributing to a sustainable and efficient energy system.

Cognition-Based Document Matching Within the Chatbot Modeling Framework

“…BERT is a system by which Google's algorithm uses pattern recognition to better understand how human beings communicate so that it can return more relevant results for users [48]. The development of Indonesian NLP technology can be said to be minimal when compared to English NLP [49]. This also became a challenge when I wanted to develop an Indonesian NLP model [50].…”

Forecasting learning in electrical engineering and informatics: An ontological approach

“…1, existing methods in forecasting can be optimized in preprocessing, process, or a combination of both (hybrid) [41]. Evaluation in forecasting can be seen from three sides: accuracy, error, and correlation [42]. Accuracy is used to determine the accuracy of the forecast results with actual data, which Mean Absolute Error (MAE) or Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) can usually use [38], as in ( 1) and (2).…”
