Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of energy consumption prediction, and more specifically, to a method, device and medium for predicting energy consumption of a medical institution. Background Art

[0002] Among the many factors influencing hospital operational efficiency, energy consumption is a crucial one. Hospital logistics consume significant amounts of energy resources to maintain various needs, including hot and cold water supply, temperature and humidity control, lighting, clinical operations, medical equipment operation, and water and natural gas supplies. Therefore, predicting hospital energy consumption can facilitate effective energy management, achieving the goals of green hospital development and refined logistics management.

[0003] However, traditional hospital energy consumption prediction methods usually use a unified feature set and algorithm parameters to process the energy consumption data of the entire hospital, and feature engineering also relies heavily on common features (such as timestamps and total energy consumption values), which makes the prediction accuracy of the prediction model insufficient and the generalization ability is not good enough.

[0004] Furthermore, traditional hospital energy consumption forecasting models often rely on time series decomposition algorithms, which struggle to handle the complex nonlinear relationships in hospital energy consumption data. Hospital energy consumption is influenced by multiple factors, including staff turnover, equipment usage, and climate, exhibiting highly nonlinear characteristics. Traditional time series algorithms, based on linear modeling assumptions, cannot effectively capture these characteristics. Nonlinear decomposition algorithms also suffer from modal aliasing and unstable results, and a single model struggles to achieve accurate predictions. Summary of the Invention

[0047] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for the purpose of explaining this application and are not intended to limit this application. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this application described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0048] The terms "first," "second," or "nth" in the specification, claims, or drawings of this application may be used to distinguish different objects or to describe a specific order, depending on the specific scenario. In addition, the terms "including" or "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but may optionally include steps or units that are not listed, or may optionally include other steps or units that are inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.

[0049] As described in the background technology section of the specification, traditional hospital energy consumption prediction methods usually use a unified feature set and algorithm parameters to process the energy consumption data of the entire hospital, and feature engineering also relies heavily on common features (such as timestamps and total energy consumption values), which makes the prediction accuracy of the prediction model not high enough and the generalization ability is not good enough. In addition, traditional hospital energy consumption prediction models mostly use time series decomposition algorithms, which are difficult to handle the complex nonlinear relationships of hospital energy consumption data. Hospital energy consumption is affected by multiple factors such as personnel flow, equipment use, and climate, and exhibits highly nonlinear characteristics. Traditional time series algorithms are based on linear assumptions and cannot effectively capture them; nonlinear decomposition algorithms also have problems such as modal aliasing and unstable results, and a single model is difficult to achieve accurate predictions. In view of this, the present application provides a medical institution energy consumption prediction method, equipment, and medium, the purpose of which is to improve the prediction accuracy of the medical institution energy consumption data prediction model and enhance the generalization ability of the model.

[0050] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of the present application provides a method for predicting energy consumption of a medical institution, which may specifically include the following steps.

[0051] Step 1: Classify the energy consumption data of medical institutions (such as hospitals at all levels, community health service centers, etc.) by regional and equipment dimensions to build a multi-dimensional energy consumption classification system.

[0052] The energy consumption of the outpatient area is strongly correlated with the flow of people and the number of outpatient visits, while the energy consumption of the equipment room is mainly affected by the equipment load rate. However, traditional methods generally do not distinguish regional characteristics, resulting in unreasonable distribution of characteristic factors. Large medical equipment (such as CT, MR) exhibits intermittent high energy consumption characteristics, while environmental equipment (such as air conditioning) has periodic operating rules. However, traditional methods generally do not adjust model parameters according to equipment types, making it difficult to capture differentiated energy consumption patterns. Based on the above analysis, an embodiment of the present application classifies hospital energy consumption data by regional dimension and equipment dimension. The specific classification is as follows:

[0053] 1. Regional dimension classification:

[0054] (1) Business functional areas (outpatient, inpatient, medical technology, emergency, administrative offices, etc.): The main energy consumption comes from lighting, air conditioning and medical equipment in areas with intensive human activities.

[0055] (2) Logistics public areas (equipment rooms, parking lots, dormitories, building perimeters, etc.): The main energy consumption is concentrated in equipment operation (such as refrigeration units, water pumps) and infrastructure maintenance.

[0056] (3) Commercial areas (restaurants, supermarkets, etc.): The main energy consumption is significantly affected by fluctuations in business hours and passenger flow.

[0057] 2. Equipment dimension classification:

[0058] (1) General equipment (lighting, sockets, power, environment, etc.): Energy consumption patterns are strongly related to time, temperature and humidity.

[0059] (2) Large medical equipment (CT, DR, MR, DSA, linear accelerator, etc.): Intermittent high energy consumption requires modeling in combination with equipment usage logs.

[0060] (3) Medical equipment and emergency equipment: Energy consumption is driven by sudden events, and an abnormality detection mechanism needs to be introduced.

[0061] Then, based on the above two-dimensional classification results, a multidimensional energy consumption classification system is constructed. Step 2: Dynamically adjust the feature engineering strategy based on the multidimensional energy consumption classification system and construct a multidimensional feature library. That is, dynamically adjust the feature engineering and model according to the scenario, and then, considering the impact of multidimensional features on energy consumption, build a multidimensional feature library to store daily average temperature and humidity data, hospital traffic data, outpatient volume data, bed data and other data. In some embodiments, dynamically adjusting the feature engineering strategy and constructing the multidimensional feature library specifically include the following contents.

[0062] 1. Establishment of multidimensional feature library

[0063] (1) Data acquisition

[0064] Energy consumption data: Through smart electricity meters, gas meters, water meters and other IoT devices, categorized energy consumption data (electricity, natural gas, water, etc.) of each area (outpatient department, inpatient department, logistics public areas, etc.) and each device (large medical equipment, air conditioning, lighting, etc.) is automatically collected every day.

[0065] Environmental data: Deploy temperature and humidity sensors (such as in clinics, wards, and computer rooms) to monitor environmental parameters in real time.

[0066] Operational data: Synchronize operational indicators such as outpatient volume, emergency volume, bed occupancy rate, and surgical schedule from the hospital information system (HIS).

[0067] Equipment log: Integrates the operation logs of major electrical equipment (such as air conditioner host start and stop, equipment power curve, etc.).

[0068] (2) Data standardization and storage

[0069] Data alignment: All data are aligned by timestamp and stored in a time series format. Fields include timestamp, location, device_type, energy_type, value, etc.

[0070] Classification storage: Create sub-tables to store characteristic data of different areas such as outpatient areas, inpatient areas, and equipment rooms; create independent tables for equipment types (CT, MR, air conditioning) to record parameters such as power, operating status, and maintenance cycle.

[0071] (3) Data cleaning

[0072] Missing value processing: Linear interpolation is used to fill short-term missing data, and long-term missing data are marked as abnormal and trigger manual verification.

[0073] Outlier detection: Use the Z-score algorithm (threshold ±3σ) to identify outliers and combine it with business rule corrections (for example, a sudden drop in inpatient lighting energy consumption to zero during the day is considered an equipment anomaly, and the relevant data needs to be reported, and energy consumption data repaired through tools).

[0074] 2. Feature Engineering Processing by Scenario

[0075] Traditional feature engineering has the limitation of "one size fits all" and relies on general features (such as timestamps, total energy consumption values, etc.), without combining hospital-specific parameters (such as bed occupancy rate, emergency volume, equipment maintenance cycle, etc.) to dynamically screen features for different scenarios. For example:

[0076] The energy consumption of the outpatient area is strongly correlated with the flow of people and the lighting status of the clinic, but traditional methods may forcibly add irrelevant features such as "equipment room load rate" into the outpatient area model, thereby introducing noise.

[0077] The energy consumption of large medical devices (such as CT) is driven by the device power curve, but traditional feature sets may only contain general timestamps and total energy consumption, while ignoring device-specific parameters.

[0078] (1) Regional dimension example: outpatient area

[0079] Time characteristics: whether it is a weekend or a holiday.

[0080] Weather characteristics: daily average temperature, daily rainfall.

[0081] Outpatient business characteristics: number of outpatient registrations on the day, number of consultations with large medical equipment.

[0082] (2) Equipment dimension example: lighting system

[0083] Time characteristics: whether it is a weekday, season / month.

[0084] Weather characteristics: average daily light intensity (sufficient natural light reduces the need for artificial lighting), whether it is cloudy (additional lighting is required), and duration of daylight (short-day days require longer lighting hours).

[0085] Equipment business characteristics: total lighting on-time of the day, active hours of the lighting area, special event markers, and equipment aging coefficient.

[0086] Examples of feature engineering processing for different scenarios are as follows:

[0087] Characteristics of energy consumption in the outpatient area:

[0088] (1) Long energy consumption time and uneven distribution: Energy demand varies greatly on different days. For example, weekdays are usually the peak period for medical consultations, with higher energy consumption, while weekends are relatively lower. In addition, energy consumption time varies among departments. For example, the laboratory and radiology departments may require equipment to run for longer periods of time, and their energy consumption distribution is different from that of ordinary outpatient departments.

[0089] (2) High energy density: The outpatient area is one of the most densely populated areas in the hospital, and the energy consumption per unit area is relatively high. According to statistics, the energy consumption intensity of outpatient buildings is usually higher than that of ordinary public buildings.

[0090] (3) Energy consumption is greatly affected by the number of patients: The energy consumption of the outpatient area is closely related to the number of patients. The greater the number of patients, the higher the energy consumption. When the number of patients increases, the frequency and time of use of lighting, air conditioning, medical equipment, etc. will increase accordingly.

[0091] (4) The types of energy-consuming equipment are diverse and complex: The main energy-consuming equipment in the outpatient area includes HVAC systems, lighting systems, and medical equipment. Among them, HVAC systems are the largest energy consumers, accounting for a large proportion of the total energy consumption in the outpatient area. In addition, large medical equipment such as CT and MRI equipment has high energy consumption.

[0092] 3. Dynamic feature adjustment method

[0093] Given that traditional feature engineering relies heavily on general features and has the limitation of a "one-size-fits-all" approach, in some embodiments, dynamically adjusting feature engineering strategies includes the following.

[0094] For the regional dimension, region-specific characteristics are introduced, including: the increase in the number of registered patients in the outpatient area, the increase in the bed occupancy rate in the inpatient area, and the operating status of large medical equipment.

[0095] In terms of equipment dimensions, equipment-specific features are introduced, including: increased diagnosis times and power curve features for large medical equipment, and increased maintenance cycles and power parameter features for environmental equipment.

[0096] Seasonal strategy: Based on the hospital's cooling and heating source configuration, energy consumption and operation data of the corresponding environmentally controlled cooling and heating sources are introduced into the feature set during the cooling, heating, and transition seasons.

[0097] Device abnormal status perception strategy: When abnormal sensor temperature and humidity data is detected during data preprocessing, the backup rule is triggered and external meteorological data is used instead.

[0098] Step 3: Perform model training based on the multidimensional feature library to obtain an intrinsic mode function component prediction model and a residual component prediction model.

[0099] Before training a model, it's usually necessary to standardize the data and use it for data analysis. Different features often have different dimensions and units, which can affect the model's predictions. To eliminate the effects of dimensionality, the data needs to be standardized. This process, known as normalization, limits the data to a specific range.

[0100] In some embodiments, the maximum-minimum normalization method is used to normalize the sample data. The maximum-minimum normalization is a linear transformation of the original data, and the calculation method is:

[0101]

[0102] In the formula, Represents the original value of the feature column, minA and maxA represent the minimum and maximum values ​​of the feature column respectively. After processing, they will be mapped to [0, 1]. .

[0103] After preprocessing the feature data in the multidimensional feature library, model training can be performed based on the multidimensional feature library to obtain the intrinsic mode function component prediction model and the residual component prediction model. The specific technical details of the training model can be found in steps 4 and 5.

[0104] Step 4: Decompose the classified medical institution energy consumption data to obtain intrinsic mode function components and residual components.

[0105] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 After normalizing the hospital energy consumption data and characteristics, CEEMD was used to decompose the hospital energy consumption time series into multiple intrinsic mode function (IMF) components and residual components. Each IMF component represents the characteristics of different frequencies and time scales in the data, while the residual component contains the long-term trend of the data and possible complex seasonal patterns.

[0106] The core concept of CEEMD is to add paired positive and negative white noise to the original signal, perform EMD decomposition (Empirical Mode Decomposition) on each of these noise-added signals, and then average the decomposition results. This method can significantly offset the interference of random noise, thereby significantly reducing modal aliasing and reconstruction error. Compared with traditional EMD, CEEMD effectively reduces modal aliasing and noise interference by adding paired positive and negative noise and performing averaging, while also improving computational efficiency and being more suitable for the adaptive decomposition of nonlinear and non-stationary signals. Compared with trend-cycle-residual decomposition, CEEMD does not require a preset period, can flexibly decompose complex signals, has stronger noise handling capabilities, and has a wider range of applications. The specific CEEMD decomposition methods are as follows.

[0107] 1. Initialization

[0108] Input original signal , determine the number of times N to add noise, and the amplitude of the noise .

[0109] 2. Add complementary noise

[0110] For each experiment of adding noise , generates a white noise sequence , construct two sets of signals:

[0111]

[0112]

[0113] 3. EMD decomposition

[0114] For each signal and Perform EMD decomposition separately to obtain their respective intrinsic mode function (IMFs) sets:

[0115] :

[0116] :

[0117] 4. Calculate complementary average

[0118] For each pair of IMF components of complementary signals, calculate their average values ​​to obtain the final IMF components:

[0119]

[0120] 5. Ensemble Average

[0121] The average IMF components of all N experiments are further averaged to obtain the final IMF component set:

[0122]

[0123] 6. Result reconstruction

[0124] The final reconstructed signal can be expressed as:

[0125]

[0126] Where M is the number of adaptive modes, is the jth IMF component, is the residual after averaging.

[0127] Step 5: Use the intrinsic mode function component prediction model to predict the intrinsic mode function component to obtain an intrinsic mode function component prediction result; use the residual component prediction model to predict the residual component to obtain a residual component prediction result.

[0128] Although CEEMD can decompose the signal into multiple IMF components and residuals, the residuals The data may still contain complex seasonal patterns. The AutoARIMA algorithm can further process residuals. Its core concept is to model time series by automatically searching for the optimal ARIMA model parameters (including the differencing order, the order of the autoregressive term, and the order of the moving average term). AutoARIMA can automatically identify trend, seasonality, and noise components in the time series and select the most appropriate parameter combination to fit the data. Furthermore, ARIMA can be expanded to an ARIMAX model, allowing the inclusion of exogenous variables (such as the total rated power of energy-consuming equipment in medical institutions and the area of ​​medical department departments) to better capture factors that may influence time series trends. In this way, AutoARIMA can effectively handle complex time series data, improving the model's adaptability and forecasting accuracy. It can more effectively handle noise and complex seasonal patterns in hospital energy consumption data, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of energy consumption forecasts.

[0129] Specifically, the residual components obtained from the CEEMD decomposition are used as input to the AutoARIMA algorithm, and features that may affect long-term trends are added. ARIMA is expanded to ARIMAX, long-term low-frequency features are added, and the optimal parameters are adaptively found to meet the optimal principle of the AIC information criterion.

[0130] Decomposed by CEEMD IMF data often exhibit complex nonlinear characteristics, making them difficult to effectively model with traditional linear models. As a nonlinear model, LSTM, through its gating mechanism and complex connectivity between neurons, possesses powerful nonlinear mapping capabilities. It can learn the complex inherent laws and patterns in IMF data, adapt to nonlinear changes in the data, and thus achieve more accurate IMF predictions.

[0131] Secondly, IMFs are components of different characteristic scales decomposed from the original signal, and their sequence data often exhibits long-range dependencies. The forget gate, input gate, and output gate of the LSTM can selectively retain or forget historical information, enabling long-term memorization of important data and effectively capturing long-term dependencies in the IMF sequence. This makes it advantageous for predicting future IMF values.

[0132] Furthermore, different IMFs may have different statistical characteristics and change patterns. LSTM has strong flexibility and adaptability. Through large-scale data training, it can automatically learn and adapt to the unique data characteristics of each IMF, and establish appropriate prediction models for different IMF components, thereby meeting diverse prediction needs.

[0133] Finally, hospital energy consumption data comes from a wide range of sources, encompassing not only the energy consumption time series itself but also multi-dimensional external information, such as meteorological data (temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc.), hospital operational data (daily patient visits, department schedules, equipment usage hours), and holiday schedules. This multi-source data contains key factors influencing energy consumption fluctuations. A single LSTM prediction based solely on the IMF series fails to fully utilize this rich information. However, by incorporating this multi-source data as input features into the model, the multi-LSTM model can construct a more comprehensive prediction system. Its internal structure allows for adaptive learning based on different types of feature data. It not only captures long-range dependencies and complex nonlinear patterns in the IMF series, but also explores potential correlations between external features and energy consumption changes. This allows for a more accurate reflection of the true trends in hospital energy consumption, effectively addressing data fluctuations and unexpected situations, significantly improving prediction accuracy and robustness, and providing more reliable support for hospital energy management and optimization decisions.

[0134] Specifically, the IMF components obtained by CEEMD decomposition are used as feature inputs. In addition, other features that may affect the hospital's energy consumption trend can also be added, such as weather data, holiday information, and hospital operation conditions.

[0135] According to the characteristics of time series data, historical data and features are used as input features, and the energy consumption value at a certain time point in the future is used as the target value to generate a sample data set for LSTM model training.

[0136] Build an LSTM neural network model, including an input layer, multiple LSTM layers, and an output layer. Select appropriate activation functions, loss functions, and optimizers, using ReLU as the activation function, mean squared error (MSE) as the loss function, and the Adam optimizer to optimize model parameters.

[0137] After CEEMD decomposition, IMF components and residuals are obtained. IMF components generally represent high-frequency feature fluctuations. In one embodiment of the present application, LSTM is used to predict them, and the following features are selected:

[0138] 1. Time characteristics

[0139] Day of the week: Hospital outpatient clinics are busier on different days of the week. Generally speaking, Mondays are more crowded with patients, leading to higher electricity consumption, while weekends may be relatively lower. This reflects the cyclical fluctuations in outpatient electricity consumption, which aligns with the short-term fluctuations in the IMF component.

[0140] Holidays: During holidays, hospital outpatient clinic schedules and patient traffic change, leading to different power consumption patterns. For example, statutory holidays typically see fewer outpatient visits, leading to a corresponding decrease in power consumption, which is a significant factor influencing the daily granularity of outpatient power consumption.

[0141] 2. Weather characteristics

[0142] Daily average temperature: Temperature significantly impacts air conditioning usage in hospital outpatient clinics. In hot weather, cooling demand increases, leading to higher electricity consumption. In cold weather, heating with air conditioning or other heating equipment also causes fluctuations in electricity consumption, which is highly correlated with short-term fluctuations in outpatient electricity consumption.

[0143] Daily precipitation: Precipitation may affect patients' willingness to travel, which in turn affects the number of outpatient visits. It may also affect the use of some equipment in the hospital, such as ventilation equipment, and have a certain impact on the daily granularity fluctuation of outpatient electricity consumption.

[0144] 3. Characteristics of outpatient services

[0145] Number of outpatient registrations on the same day: The number of registrations directly reflects the patient flow in the outpatient clinic on that day. The more people there are, the more frequently various devices are used, and the higher the power consumption. It is a key factor affecting the daily fluctuation of outpatient power consumption.

[0146] Number of consultations with large medical equipment: refers to the total number of outpatient visits in departments related to large medical equipment (such as CT, MRI, etc.) on that day.

[0147] Generally speaking, residuals represent long-term trends, so one embodiment of this application uses AutoARIMA to predict residuals, and the following features are selected:

[0148] Hospital operation characteristics, including:

[0149] Total rated power of hospital energy-consuming equipment: If large medical equipment is put into use in a hospital, it may increase outpatient electricity consumption for a period of time, affecting the long-term trend represented by the residual. This is because the power and frequency of use of the new equipment will change the overall electricity consumption pattern.

[0150] Hospital Department Area: Department adjustments may lead to the reallocation of personnel and equipment, affecting power consumption in different areas. For example, relocating a department from one floor to another may alter power consumption on that floor, in turn affecting the long-term trend of outpatient power consumption and the variation pattern of the residual. For detailed characteristic data, please refer to Tables 1-3.

[0152]

[0153] Table 2 List of features used for residual prediction

[0154]

[0155] Table 3. List of features used for IMF component prediction

[0156]

[0157] Step 6: reconstruct the intrinsic mode function component prediction result and the residual component prediction result to obtain the medical institution energy consumption prediction result.

[0158] In some embodiments, the LSTM model is used to predict each IMF component separately to obtain a predicted value for each component. The AutoARIMA model is then used to predict the residual to obtain a predicted residual value. All the predicted values ​​obtained above are then added together to obtain the final hospital energy consumption forecast.

[0159] The final hospital energy consumption prediction results are denormalized, that is, converted from the normalized range back to the actual range of the original data, so as to be compared and evaluated with the actual energy consumption values.

[0160] Then, the error indicators between the hospital energy consumption prediction results after denormalization and the actual energy consumption values ​​of the hospital, such as the mean square error (MSE) and mean absolute error (MAE), were calculated to evaluate the prediction performance and accuracy of the model.

[0161] In the model evaluation phase, some embodiments of the present application adopt a time series partitioning strategy, using the 2024 annual energy consumption data and hospital characteristic data as a training set for optimizing and learning model parameters; data from January 2025 is selected to construct a test set to test the model's generalization ability on new data.

[0162] The evaluation index system covers mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), mean square error (MSE) and coefficient of determination (R²).

[0163] MAPE intuitively reflects the relative error between the predicted value and the true value in the form of a percentage, and is suitable for evaluating the accuracy of energy consumption forecasts.

[0164] MSE quantifies the mean square of the prediction error and is highly sensitive to outliers.

[0165] R² measures the extent to which the model explains data variation and is used to assess model goodness of fit. Comprehensive evaluation using multiple indicators ensures the scientific and comprehensive nature of model performance evaluation.

[0166] This application divides the energy consumption data of medical institutions into two dimensions, namely, region and equipment, and constructs a more refined prediction model. At the same time, it can automatically match feature sets based on classification labels and support dynamic adjustment of features. In this way, the prediction accuracy of the medical institution energy consumption data prediction model can be improved and the generalization ability of the model can be enhanced. This application uses a hybrid model based on CEEMD-AutoARIMA-LSTM for training and prediction, combining the CEEMD algorithm with the time series prediction algorithm, so that the model is more adapted to the energy consumption characteristics of the hospital, and can more accurately predict the energy consumption time series, thereby improving the prediction accuracy and adaptability.
