Solar irradiation prediction hybrid framework using regularized convolutional BiLSTM-based autoencoder approach
Regularized Convolutional BiLSTM-Based Autoencoder Approach:
In this project, I have collected data from NSRDB, DKASC, and Hi-SEAS for performance evaluation.
Further, I designed hybrid technique which comprises two parts: feature encoding and dimensionality reduction using an LSTM autoencoder, followed by a regularized convolutional BiLSTM using Tensorflow/Keras using Python language.
Clustering-based CNN-BiLSTM-Attention Hybrid Architecture with PSO:
In this project, I developed and implemented K-means clustering technique to cluster the irradiance data.
The different clusters were predicted using CNN-BiLSTM-Attention model with PSO algorithm.
Solar Irradiance Forecasting using Hybrid Fuzzy based CNN-BiLSTM Framework:
Designed and implemented hybrid fuzzy based deep learning models (LSTM, CNN, CNN-LSTM, and CNN-BiLSTM)) using TensorFlow/Keras in Python to forecast solar irradiance.
Research Interests
