Particle Swarm Algorithm to Optimize LSTM Short-Term Load Forecasting

Accurate load forecasting is of great significance for national and grid planning and management. In order to improve the accuracy of short-term load forecasting, an LSTM prediction model based on particle swarm optimization (PSO)algorithm is proposed. LSTM has the characteristics of avoiding gradient disappearance and gradient explosion, but there is a problem that parameters are difficult to select. Therefore, particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to help it select parameters. The experimental results show that the optimized LSTM has higher prediction accuracy
