Abstract
This paper explores the classic prediction algorithms such as Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average model (ARIMA) and Long Short-Term Memory Neural Network (LSTM), and combines the advantages of both, and proposes a short-term forecast method ARIMA-LSTM fusion model. This model computes the final predicted value by applying a linear correctio to the LSTM model error. Using ARIMA and LSTM as a comparison algorithm, train and predict the next day's load with ARIMA-LSTM. The root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and the worst relative error (WRE) were used to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm. After testing, the RMSE of the proposed model is 0.433, while ARIMA and LSTM are 0.461 and 0.445 respectively. ARIMA-LSTM also has better results and performs well on different types of power datasets.
