• Abstract: In this paper, statistical machine learning algorithms, as well as deep neural networks, are used to predict the values of the price gap between day-ahead and real-time electricity markets. Several exogenous features are collected and impacts of these features are examined to capture the best relations between the features and the target variable. Ensemble learning algorithm namely the Random Forest issued to calculate the probability distribution of the predicted electricity prices for day-ahead and real-time markets. Long-Short-Term-Memory (LSTM) is utilized to capture long term dependencies in predicting direct gap values between mentioned markets and the benefits of directly predicting the gap price rather than subtracting the predictions of day-ahead and real-time markets are illustrated. Case studies are implemented on the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) electricity market data for a two years period. The proposed methods are evaluated and neural networks showed promising results in predicting the exact values of the gap.

• Bayesian Hierarchical Probabilistic Forecasting of Intraday Electricity Prices [0.0]
  We present a first study of Bayesian forecasting of electricity prices traded on the German continuous intraday market. For validation we use the exceedingly volatile electricity prices of 2022, which have hardly been the subject of forecasting studies before. We challenge the declared gold standard of using LASSO for feature selection in electricity price forecasting by presenting strong statistical evidence that OMP leads to better forecasting performance.

  This work applies to the Irish balancing market a variety of price prediction techniques proven successful in the widely studied day-ahead market. We compare statistical, machine learning, and deep learning models using a framework that investigates the impact of different training sizes. An extensive numerical study shows that well-performing models in the day-ahead market do not perform well in the balancing one.

  Multi-step stock price prediction over a long-term horizon is crucial for forecasting its volatility. Current solutions to multi-step stock price prediction are mostly designed for single-step, classification-based predictions. We combine a deep hierarchical variational-autoencoder (VAE) and diffusion probabilistic techniques to do seq2seq stock prediction. Our model is shown to outperform state-of-the-art solutions in terms of its prediction accuracy and variance.

  Traditional time-series econometric methods often appear incapable of capturing the true complexity of the multi-level interactions driving the price dynamics. By adopting a state-of-the-art second-order optimization algorithm, we train a Bayesian bilinear neural network with temporal attention. By addressing the use of predictive distributions to analyze errors and uncertainties associated with the estimated parameters and model forecasts, we thoroughly compare our Bayesian model with traditional ML alternatives.

We show we can reduce the mean absolute error by 30% using an online algorithm when compared to the best offline algorithm. We also show that large errors in prediction accuracy have a disproportionate error on investments made over a 17-year time frame.
