摘 要:Renewable and nonrenewable energy sources are widely incorporated for solar and wind energy that produces electricity without increasing carbon dioxide *** industries worldwide are trying hard to predict future energy consumption that could eliminate over or under contracting energy resources and unnecessary *** learning techniques for predicting energy are the trending solution to overcome the challenges faced by energy *** basic need for machine learning algorithms to be trained for accurate prediction requires a considerable amount of *** critical factor is balancing the data for enhanced *** Augmentation is a technique used for increasing the data available for *** data are the generation of new data which can be trained to improve the accuracy of prediction *** this paper,we propose a model that takes time series energy consumption data as input,pre-processes the data,and then uses multiple augmentation techniques and generative adversarial networks to generate synthetic data which when combined with the original data,reduces energy consumption prediction *** propose TGAN-skip-Improved-WGAN-GP to generate synthetic energy consumption time series tabular *** modify TGANwith skip connections,then improveWGANGPby defining a consistency term,and finally use the architecture of improved WGAN-GP for training *** used various evaluation metrics and visual representation to compare the performance of our proposed *** also measured prediction accuracy along with mean and maximum error generated while predicting with different variations of augmented and synthetic data with original *** mode collapse problemcould be handled by TGAN-skip-Improved-WGAN-GP model and it also converged faster than existing GAN models for synthetic data *** experiment result shows that our proposed technique of combining synthetic data with original data could significantly red
