A VMD and LSTM based hybrid model of load forecasting for power grid security (2021)
Journal Article
Lv, L., Wu, Z., Zhang, J., Tan, Z., Zhang, L., & Tian, Z. (2022). A VMD and LSTM based hybrid model of load forecasting for power grid security. IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, 18(9), 6474-6482. https://doi.org/10.1109/tii.2021.3130237

As the basis for the static security of the power grid, power load forecasting directly affects the safety of grid operation, the rationality of grid planning, and the economy of supply-demand balance. However, various factors lead to drastic changes... Read More about A VMD and LSTM based hybrid model of load forecasting for power grid security.
