ANFIS-based prediction of power generation for combined cycle power plant (2210.09011v1)

Abstract: This paper presents the application of an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) to predict the generated electrical power in a combined cycle power plant. The ANFIS architecture is implemented in MATLAB through a code that utilizes a hybrid algorithm that combines gradient descent and the least square estimator to train the network. The Model is verified by applying it to approximate a nonlinear equation with three variables, the time series Mackey-Glass equation and the ANFIS toolbox in MATLAB. Once its validity is confirmed, ANFIS is implemented to forecast the generated electrical power by the power plant. The ANFIS has three inputs: temperature, pressure, and relative humidity. Each input is fuzzified by three Gaussian membership functions. The first-order Sugeno type defuzzification approach is utilized to evaluate a crisp output. Proposed ANFIS is cable of successfully predicting power generation with extremely high accuracy and being much faster than Toolbox, which makes it a promising tool for energy generation applications.
