Abstract: Aiming at the problem that there are many influencing factors of electricity coal prices and the nonlinearity and multiple time lags are difficult to model, a data-driven medium and short-term electricity coal price forecasting method based on feature transformation and LSTM was proposed. In order to fully excavate the electricity coal price law contained in the massive data, the feature transformation method of different time scale granularity information was proposed. In order to solve the problem of over-fitting caused by multiple variables and small samples, the main influencing factors of medium and short-term coal prices were screened based on chi-square analysis and correlation coefficient. Based on the LSTM neural network, the feature translation correlation analysis method was used to determine the hysteresis of different influencing feature sequences, and the information redundancy in the model was optimized by the main analytic method, and on this basis, a deep learning model based on feature trends was formed. The years of historical data and comparative analysis with various models show the effectiveness and accuracy of this model.
