By incorporating with the simulated annealing method, the global searching capacity of the particle swarm optimization(SAPSO) was enchanced, and the searching capacity of the particle swarm optimization was studied.

Based on the operational data provided by a regional power grid in north China, the method was used in the actual short term load forecasting. The results show that compared to the PSO-SVM and the traditional SVM, the average time of the proposed method in the experimental process reduces by 11.6 s and 31.1 s, and the precision of the proposed method increases by 1.24% and 3.18%, respectively. So, the improved method is better than the PSO-SVM and the traditional SVM.展开更多
