Popis: Short-term energy-consumption prediction is the basis of anomaly detection, real-time scheduling, and energy-saving control in manufacturing systems. Most existing methods focus on single-node energy-consumption prediction and suffer from difficult parameter collection and modelling. Although several methods have been presented for multinode energy-consumption prediction, their prediction performance needs to be improved owing to a lack of appropriate knowledge guidance and learning networks for complex spatiotemporal relationships. This study presents a symmetric spatiotemporal learning network (SSTLN) with a sparse meter graph (SMG) (SSTLN-SMG) that aims to predict multiple nodes based on energy-consumption time series and general process knowledge. The SMG expresses process knowledge by abstracting production nodes, material flows, and energy usage, and provides initial guidance for the SSTLN to extract spatial features. SSTLN, a symmetrical stack of graph convolutional networks (GCN) and gated linear units (GLU), is devised to achieve a trade-off not only between spatial and temporal feature extraction but also between detail capture and noise suppression. Extensive experiments were performed using datasets from an aluminium profile plant. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method allows multinode energy-consumption prediction with less prediction error than state-of-the-art methods, methods with deformed meter graphs, and methods with deformed learning networks.
