Data-Driven Machine-Learning Model in District Heating System for Heat Load Prediction: A Comparison Study by Fisnik Dalipi, Sule Yildirim Yayilgan, Alemayehu Gebremedhin

“…Even though ML has been used as an approach to heat load prediction in literature, it is hard to select an approach that will qualify as a solution for our case as existing solutions are quite problem specific. For that reason, we compared and evaluated three ML algorithms within a framework on operational data from a DH system in order to generate the required prediction model. …”

THE COMPILATION OF SHANNON ENTROPY MEASUREMENT EQUATION FOR NONLINEAR DYNAMIC SYSTEMS BY USING THE INTERVAL ANALYSIS METHODS by Yu. P. Machekhin, Yu. S. Kurskoy

“…It is shown that the measurement and measurement results analysis for variables with complex dynamics, as a rule, cannot be described by classical metrological approaches, that metrological documents, for example GUM, contain. The reason of this situation is the mismatch between the classical mathematical and physical approaches on the one hand and processes that occur in real dynamic systems on the other hand. …”
