A Small-Sample Scenario Optimization Scheduling Method Based on Multidimensional Data Expansion by Yaoxian Liu, Kaixin Zhang, Yue Sun, Jingwen Chen, Junshuo Chen

“…Currently, deep reinforcement learning has been widely applied to energy system optimization and scheduling, and the DRL method relies more heavily on historical data. The lack of historical operation data in new integrated energy systems leads to insufficient DRL training samples, which easily triggers the problems of underfitting and insufficient exploration of the decision space and thus reduces the accuracy of the scheduling plan. …”
