Short Term Electrical Load Forecasting Using Mutual Information Based Feature Selection with Generalized Minimum-Redundancy and Maximum-Relevance Criteria

A feature selection method based on the generalized minimum redundancy and maximum relevance (G-mRMR) is proposed to improve the accuracy of short-term load forecasting (STLF). First, mutual information is calculated to analyze the relations between the original features and the load sequence, as we...
