Wind-Radiation Data-Driven Modelling Using Derivative Transform, Deep-LSTM, and Stochastic Tree AI Learning in 2-Layer Meteo-Patterns

Self-contained local forecasting of wind and solar series can improve operational planning of wind farms and photovoltaic (PV) plant day-cycles in addition to numerical models, which are mostly behind time due to high simulation costs. Unstable electricity production requires balancing the availability of renewable energy (RE) with unpredictable user consumption to achieve effective usage. Artificial intelligence (AI) predictive modelling can minimise the intermittent uncertainty in wind and solar resources by trying to eliminate specific problems in RE-detached system reliability and optimal utilisation. The proposed 24 h day-training and prediction scheme comprises the starting detection and the following similarity re-assessment of sampling day-series intervals. Two-point professional weather stations record standard meteorological variables, of which the most relevant are selected as optimal model inputs. Automatic two-layer altitude observation captures key relationships between hill- and lowland-level data, which comply with pattern progress. New biologically inspired differential learning (DfL) is designed and developed to integrate adaptive neurocomputing (evolving node tree components) with customised numerical procedures of operator calculus (OC) based on derivative transforms. DfL enables the representation of uncertain dynamics related to local weather patterns. Angular and frequency data (wind azimuth, temperature, irradiation) are processed together with the amplitudes to solve simple 2-variable partial differential equations (PDEs) in binomial nodes. Differentiated data provide the fruitful information necessary to model upcoming changes in mid-term day horizons. Additional PDE components in periodic form improve the modelling of hidden complex patterns in cycle data. The DfL efficiency was proved in statistical experiments, compared to a variety of elaborated AI techniques, enhanced by selective difference input preprocessing. Successful LSTM-deep and stochastic tree learning shows little inferior model performances, notably in day-ahead estimation of chaotic 24 h wind series, and slightly better approximation of alterative 8 h solar cycles. Free parametric C++ software with the applied archive data is available for additional comparative and reproducible experiments.
