Forecasting electricity demand in South Africa using artificial intelligence
D.Phil. (Electrical and Electronic Engineering) === This thesis introduces a novel artificial intelligence technique called extreme learning machines (ELM) and structural causal models (SCM) for forecasting electricity consumption using time series and causality approaches. Time series data is used...
