Building energy consumption prediction method based on artificial bee colony algorithm and neural network

Abstract

The invention provides a building energy consumption prediction method based on an artificial bee colony algorithm and a neural network. The method comprises the steps that firstly, the artificial bee colony algorithm is utilized for conducting weight value optimization on the neural network; secondly, the optimized neural network is utilized for predicting building energy consumption. The artificial bee colony algorithm is an optimizing algorithm simulating a bee colony and has the advantages that control parameters are fewer, implementation is easy, and calculation is convenient; compared with a particle swarm algorithm, a genetic algorithm and other intelligent computing methods, the artificial bee colony algorithm has the prominent advantages that in each iterative process, global search and local search are both performed, the probability of finding an optimal solution is greatly increased, local optimum is avoided to a great extent, and global convergence is enhanced. Thus, when the artificial bee colony algorithm is adopted to optimize the initial weight value of the neutral network, the accuracy of the neutral network predicting the building energy consumption is improved, and meanwhile the defects existing in weight value optimization of the neutral network at present can be overcome obviously.
