Abstract
Background: Consumption of electricity always varies based on demand. The load cluster pattern aims at categorizing periodical changes over a specific time. Predicting the electric load was the initial goal of this study. Additionally, the outcomes of the load prediction were utilized as data for categorizing electrical loads using a descriptive-analytical method.
Objective: The study has dealt with a matching of load-side electric demand with the electric supply. To ensure dependable power-generating stability, it is vital to anticipate and categorize loads. Thus, the research presented here has focused on electrical load forecasting and classification.
Methods: Alternative algorithms, including Naive Bayes, decision tree, and support vector machine classifier, were employed to address the cluster pattern. The data used for this research presentation was collected from the D Block of the Kamaraj College of Engineering and Technology, K. Vellakulam, India, every 15 minutes. Multiple unsuitable loaded circumstances were ignored during the pre-processing of the dataset. Additionally, other algorithms, like Naive Bayes, decision tree, and support vector machine, were used to categorize the raw data. The processing of data was done by a feature selection approach.
Results: The performance was predicted by comparing the entire machine learning algorithms. Out of the machine learning techniques, an accuracy of 4.2% for Academic Block 4, a precision of 33% for Boys Hostel, a recall score of 4.7% for Academic Block 4, and an F1 score of 5.3% for Academic Block 4, were obtained.
Conclusion: In the study, the decision tree algorithm has shown promising performance than the other machine learning techniques used.
