The pith

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

The reading

This paper asks whether a real hourly electrical load record with about 62% of entries missing can still be used for load forecasting. The answer it defends is yes: if the series is treated as wide-sense stationary at the hourly scale, each hour's missing values can be imputed by sampling from a Gaussian whose mean and variance are estimated from the values that were observed. After that imputation, an LSTM network forecasts the completed series with roughly 10.7% mean absolute percentage error, better than nine alternative forecasting models. The authors conclude that Gaussian interpolation is a workable option for sparse, mildly non-stationary load data.

What carries the argument

The load-bearing mechanism is hourly Gaussian imputation: for each hour of the day at which the plant operates, estimate $\mu$ and $\sigma$ from the existing load values for that hour, then fill every missing entry by drawing $X = \mu + \sigma Z$ with $Z \sim \mathcal{N}(0,1)$, clipping samples above the plant's generating capacity to that capacity and negative samples to zero. This single rule produces the complete series on which all ten forecasters are trained and scored, so the reported accuracy numbers are accuracy on the imputed record, not on the original sparse record.

What would settle it

Hold out a random subset of originally observed hours before imputation, train the LSTM exactly as in the paper, and score it only on those held-out observed hours; if the MAPE on genuinely observed load departs substantially from 10.67%, the published figure is an artifact of the Gaussian imputation. A second check is to refit the same pipeline on a complete real load record from the same plant and ask whether forecasts of true future hours reach comparable error.

Extended reading notes

Core claim

The paper's central claim is that per-hour Gaussian imputation converts a record that is roughly 62% empty into a series on which standard load forecasters train successfully, provided one accepts the data as wide-sense stationary within each hour. The empirical core is a model comparison on the interpolated series: LSTM reaches 10.67% MAPE, ahead of Transformer (11.02%), BiLSTM and DLinear (13.13%), Random Forest (14.56%), Prophet (17.73%), XGBoost (18.11%), and SARIMA (20.40%). The same LSTM on a dense public hourly load benchmark yields 1.55% MAPE, which the authors read as confirming that the interpolation, rather than the model choice, dominates the error on the sparse campus data.

Load-bearing premise

The load-bearing premise is that each missing load value can be modeled as an independent draw from a per-hour Gaussian whose mean and variance come from the observed hours, with those synthetic draws then treated as ground truth for training and scoring forecasters; the paper's own stationarity test rejects stationarity and its chi-squared test rejects Gaussianity, so if missing periods follow different dynamics or retain temporal autocorrelation, the reported errors measure fit to the imputation rule rather than fit to real load.

Editorial extensions

If this is right

  • A roughly 62%-sparse hourly load record can be made trainable for short-horizon forecasting by per-hour Gaussian imputation, with no strict stationarity required.
  • On the imputed series, recurrent architectures, especially LSTM, outperform classical statistical, tree, and shallow-linear baselines, so sequence structure carries most of the predictive signal.
  • The large gap between the sparse-campus error (10.67% MAPE) and the dense-benchmark error (1.55% MAPE) implies that interpolation quality, not model family, dominates the forecasting error.
  • The completed series shows high autocorrelation over long lags, so the forecasting models learn from smooth, synthetic structure rather than from a naturally dense record.

Reading between the lines

Editorial extensions of the paper, not claims the author makes directly.

  • Editorial inference: the method would be tested more honestly by holding out originally observed hours and ignoring imputed entries when computing error; the current protocol cannot separate skill at forecasting real load from skill at reproducing Gaussian draws.
  • Editorial inference: the approach transfers naturally to other sparse infrastructure time series such as water, gas, or traffic demand, where gaps are also non-random and the same synthetic-fit risk would appear.
  • Editorial inference: when imputation is misspecified, comparing models on the imputed series ranks their ability to track the imputation rule rather than their ability to track true load, so model rankings should be re-verified on dense data.

Referee Report

4 major / 5 minor

Summary. The paper proposes a Gaussian-interpolation approach for an hourly electrical load dataset of the BUET campus that is approximately 62% missing. Missing values are imputed by fitting a per-hour Gaussian distribution to the observed values and sampling from it, with samples clipped to [0, 2000] kW. The completed series is used to train and evaluate LSTM, BiLSTM, CNN-LSTM, CNN-BiLSTM, Transformer, Prophet, DLinear, SARIMA, XGBoost, and Random Forest models, with LSTM reported as best at 10.67% MAPE. The authors also train the LSTM on the complete Dayton dataset and report 1.55% MAPE, and conclude that Gaussian interpolation is suitable for load forecasting on sparse data.

Significance. If the reported results were valid, the paper would offer a practical route to forecasting from very sparse load data, and the broad model comparison would be a useful reference. The paper is clearly organized and states its imputation procedure and statistical tests explicitly. However, the central evaluation does not support the claims: the test set on the BUET data consists mainly of synthetic draws generated by the same per-hour Gaussian model used to create the training targets, so the reported MAPE values measure agreement with the imputation rule rather than forecasting skill. The internal stationarity and normality tests contradict the assumptions used to justify the imputation, and the Dayton experiment does not validate the imputation method. The headline conclusion therefore rests on circular evidence.

major comments (4)
  1. [2.2-2.3] The evaluation protocol in Sections 2.2 and 2.3 is circular. Section 2.2 fills every missing hour by sampling X = mu_h + sigma_h Z, where (mu_h, sigma_h) are estimated from the observed values; Section 2.3 then splits the completed dataset into training, validation, and test sets. Because the 'actual' values in the test set are synthetic draws from the same per-hour distributions that generated the training labels, a model that learns the hourly conditional mean will achieve low MAPE without any real forecasting ability. The paper never reports performance restricted to the originally observed test hours, so the 10.67% MAPE in Section 3.4 cannot be interpreted as load-forecasting accuracy.
  2. [Section 3.1] The statistical evidence reported in Section 3.1 contradicts the WSS/Gaussian assumptions that motivate the imputation. The KPSS test returns p<0.05, rejecting stationarity, which is incompatible with the WSS assumption invoked in Section 2.2; the chi-squared test rejects Gaussianity, and the appeal to the Central Limit Theorem is not justified for a strongly autocorrelated, non-identically distributed series (Fig. 3). The paper states these results but does not resolve the inconsistency before using the Gaussian-imputed data as ground truth.
  3. [Section 3.7] The Dayton experiment in Section 3.7 does not validate the interpolation method. The 1.55% MAPE is obtained on a completely observed dataset and therefore provides no evidence about Gaussian imputation on the sparse BUET data. The statement that this result 'validates our approach' (Section 3.7) overstates what the experiment can show.
  4. [Section 2.2] No comparison is made with alternative imputation methods under the same forecasting protocol. Section 2.2 asserts that linear, polynomial, or spline interpolation 'could not be used', but no experiments support this claim; without baselines such as linear interpolation, splines, KNN, or MICE, the paper's conclusion that Gaussian interpolation is 'suitable' is not supported.
minor comments (5)
  1. [Equation (3)] MAPE is undefined when y_i = 0, which can occur after clipping negative samples to zero in Section 2.2; the authors should specify how such cases are handled in the error computation.
  2. [Section 2.2] The paper uses WSS to justify per-hour Gaussian parameters, but WSS requires time-invariant mean and autocovariance; per-hour varying (mu_h, sigma_h) is better described as a periodic or cyclostationary assumption, and this distinction should be clarified.
  3. [Section 3.7] Section 3.7 reports MAE as '31.06%' without units; MAE for load data should be expressed in kW or as a percentage only if clearly defined.
  4. [Section 2] The 'supplementary section S1' referenced at the start of Section 2 is not included in the submitted manuscript; either provide the supplementary material or remove the reference.
  5. [Figure 2] Figure 2 is schematic and the caption does not describe the workflow shown; a short explanation in the caption or text would improve readability.

Circularity Check

Test-set 'actuals' are synthetic draws from the same per-hour Gaussian imputation used to build the training targets, so the headline 10.67% MAPE measures fit to the imputation rule, not real load.

  1. fitted input called prediction [Section 2.2 (Interpolation of Missing Data), Section 2.3 (Model Training), and Section 3.4 (Performance of RNN-based Models)]
    "we propose to impute the missing data-points by estimating a Gaussian probability density function (PDF) from the existing data-points, and then sampling from the PDF. ... We emphasize that the Gaussian PDF for each hour is different with different(µ,σ ), since we assume that the load data is WSS. ... The dataset was partitioned such that 66% of the samples were used for training, while the remaining portion were reserved for validation and testing purposes."

    The per-hour Gaussian parameters (µ,σ) are fitted to the observed load values, and the missing values are filled by sampling from those fitted distributions. Because this imputation is done before the train/validation/test split, the test-set 'actuals' are largely synthetic draws from the very same fitted distributions that generated the training targets. Evaluating forecasters with MAPE against those synthetic values (Section 3.4, 10.67% for LSTM) therefore measures how well each model reproduces the Gaussian imputation rule, not how well it predicts real load. A model that simply predicts each hour's fitted mean would score well by construction.

full rationale

The central claim — that Gaussian interpolation is suitable for load forecasting on the 62.45%-sparse BUET dataset — rests on forecast errors computed against a test set that was itself produced by the imputation procedure under evaluation. Section 2.2 estimates a per-hour Gaussian PDF from observed data and samples missing points from it; Section 2.3 partitions the imputed dataset into training, validation, and test splits. Since the split occurs after imputation, the test 'actuals' are outputs of the same fitted per-hour Gaussian model that created the training targets. The reported MAPE values (e.g., LSTM 10.67%, Section 3.4) are thus a measure of fit to the imputation rule, not of predictive accuracy on real load. The Dayton experiment (Section 3.7) is externally grounded and shows that LSTM can forecast clean hourly load data well, but it does not validate the Gaussian imputation method or the sparse-data claim. In addition, the paper's own statistical tests undermine the assumptions on which the imputation rests: Section 3.1 reports that the KPSS test rejects stationarity (contradicting the WSS assumption) and that the chi-squared test rejects Gaussianity, yet the paper invokes the Central Limit Theorem to treat the distribution as Gaussian. These are correctness and validity concerns independent of circularity, but they compound the evaluation problem because the imputation distribution is both contradicted by the data and used to generate the test targets. No separate observed-hours-only benchmark is reported, so the headline result cannot be separated from the fitted imputation process. Score 8 reflects that the central claim reduces, by construction, to consistency with the paper's own interpolation rule.

Assumptions & free parameters 3 free parameters · 4 assumptions · 0 invented entities

The central claim rests on per-hour Gaussian means and variances fitted from the observed data, the WSS assumption, and the assumption that missing values can be treated as independent Gaussian draws. The paper's own statistical tests contradict the WSS and Gaussianity assumptions, and no independent evidence supports the representativeness of the observed 16-hours-per-day values for the missing hours. No invented entities are introduced.

free parameters (3)
  • per-hour Gaussian mean mu_h = estimated from observed data for each hour
    Used to sample missing load values in Section 2.2; the forecast errors depend entirely on these fitted means.
  • per-hour Gaussian variance sigma_h^2 = estimated from observed data for each hour
    Controls the spread of imputed values; the reported MAPE partly measures this noise.
  • clipping bounds (0, 2000 kW) = 0 and 2000
    Imposed in Section 2.2 based on plant capacity; choice affects the imputed distribution.
assumptions (4)
  • domain assumption The load data is wide-sense stationary (WSS)
    Stated in Abstract and Section 2.2; used to justify estimating one Gaussian per hour and pooling across years. Contradicted by the paper's own KPSS test rejecting stationarity and by the non-stationary trend in Figure 4.
  • ad hoc to paper Per-hour load values follow a Gaussian distribution
    Used to define the imputation model in Section 2.2; the chi-squared test in Section 3.1 rejects this, and CLT is invoked without justification for dependent data.
  • domain assumption Missing values are independent of neighboring values and of each other
    The imputation samples X = mu + sigma Z independently for each missing point in Section 2.2, ignoring temporal autocorrelation, which load data strongly exhibits.
  • ad hoc to paper Observed 16-hours-per-day values are representative of missing hours
    Missing hours include night and unrecorded periods; no evidence is given that their load distribution equals the observed day-time distribution.

Sparsity, defined as the presence of missing or zero values in a dataset, often poses a major challenge while operating on real-life datasets. Sparsity in features or target data of the training dataset can be handled using various interpolation methods, such as linear or polynomial interpolation, spline, moving average, or can be simply imputed. Interpolation methods usually perform well with Strict Sense Stationary (SSS) data. In this study, we show that an approximately 62\% sparse dataset with hourly load data of a power plant can be utilized for load forecasting assuming the data is Wide Sense Stationary (WSS), if augmented with Gaussian interpolation. More specifically, we perform statistical analysis on the data, and train multiple machine learning and deep learning models on the dataset. By comparing the performance of these models, we empirically demonstrate that Gaussian interpolation is a suitable option for dealing with load forecasting problems. Additionally, we demonstrate that Long Short-term Memory (LSTM)-based neural network model offers the best performance among a diverse set of classical and neural network-based models.
