Prediction of Household Total Energy Expenditures Using Machine Learning Methods

Abstract

Depending on the development rate and economic developments of the countries, the range of consumption habits is expanding uncontrollably. Along with rising living standards, household energy consumption inevitably also causes energy demand to increase significantly in recent years. There is a growing concern about the energy use of households, which are a major energy user worldwide. Studies investigating the suitability of machine learning methods for estimating household total energy expenditure are insufficient. To fill this gap, this study presents a comparison of different machine learning methods for regression estimation of household total energy expenditure. It is aimed to find the machine learning method that provides the best prediction performance. The Household Budget Survey 2019 data set obtained from the Turkish Statistical Institute (TUIK) was used. Household consumption data of 11,521 households were analyzed. Under the guidance of the literature review and expert opinion, variables directly or indirectly related to household energy expenditures were created. The prepared variables were passed through data preprocessing, feature selection, modeling and estimation stages with the open source RapidMiner software program. A regression-based machine learning approach was used to estimate household total energy expenditure. In the modeling phase, DL, GBT, RF, KNN, DT machine learning methods were used. As a result, DL method showed the best performance with the highest R2 (0.99) and lowest RMSE (5.5). The results of the analysis show that more accurate results are obtained with the DLmethod in the estimation of household total energy expenditures.

Dear Authors,
According to the February 25, 2020 dated ULAKBIM decision, all kinds of researches conducted with qualitative or quantitative approaches that require data collection from participants using survey, interview, focus group study, observation, experiment, interview techniques, and the use of humans and animals (including materials/data) for experimental or other scientific purposes require an Ethics Committee certificate.

The ethics committee approvals obtained in accordance with the “publication policy” of the articles submitted to the Turkish Academic Social Sciences Research Journal must be specified in the METHOD section of the article and uploaded to the system. Publications with plagiarism report over 20% and studies without ethics committee approval will not be evaluated for publication in our journal.
Thank you for your attention and understanding.
