Resumen
In recent years, wave energy has gained attention for its sustainability and cleanliness. As one of the most important parameters of wave energy, significant wave height (SWH) is difficult to accurately predict due to complex ocean conditions and the ubiquitous chaotic phenomena in nature. Therefore, this paper proposes an integrated CEEMDAN-LSTM joint model. Traditional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has a long calculation period and high capital consumption, but artificial intelligence methods have the advantage of high accuracy and fast convergence. CEEMDAN is a commonly used method for digital signal processing in mechanical engineering, but has not yet been used for SWH prediction. It has better performance than the EMD and EEMD and is more suitable for LSTM prediction. In addition, this paper also proposes a novel filter formulation for SWH outliers based on the improved violin-box plot. The final empirical results show that CEEMDAN-LSTM significantly outperforms LSTM for each forecast duration, significantly improving the prediction accuracy. In particular, for a forecast duration of 1 h, CEEMDAN-LSTM has the most significant improvement over LSTM, with 71.91% of RMSE, 68.46% of MAE and 6.80% of NSE, respectively. In summary, our model can improve the real-time scheduling capability for marine engineering maintenance and operations.
