It is known that, interference classification plays an important role in protecting the authorized communication system and avoiding its performance degradation in the hostile environment. In this paper, the interference classification problem for the frequency hopping communication system is discussed. Considering the possibility of presence multiple interferences in the frequency hopping system, in order to fully extract effective features of the interferences from the received signals, the linear and bilinear transform based composite time-frequency analysis method is adopted. Then the time-frequency spectrograms obtained from the time-frequency analysis are constructed as matching pairs and input to the deep neural network for classification. In particular, the Siamese neural network is used as the classifier, where the paired spectrograms are input into the two sub-networks of the deep networks, and these two sub-networks extract the features of the paired spectrograms for interference type classification. The simulation results confirm that the proposed algorithm can obtain higher classification accuracy than both traditional single time-frequency representation based approach and the AlexNet transfer learning or convolutional neural network based methods.

The electricity consumption forecasting is a critical component of the intelligent power system. And accurate monthly electricity consumption forecasting, as one of the the medium and long term electricity consumption forecasting problems, plays an important role in dispatching and management for electric power systems. Although there are many studies for this problem, large sample data set is generally required to obtain higher prediction accuracy, and the prediction performance become worse when only a little data is available. However, in practical, mostly we experience the problem of insufficient sample data and how to accurately forecast the monthly electricity consumption with limited sample data is a challenge task. The Holt-Winters exponential smoothing method often used to forecast periodic series due to low demand for training data and high accuracy for forecasting. In this paper, based on Holt-Winters exponential smoothing method, we propose a hybrid forecasting model named FOA-MHW. The main idea is that, we use fruit fly optimization algorithm to select smoothing parameters for Holt-Winters exponential smoothing method. Besides, electricity consumption data of a city in China is used to comprehensively evaluate the forecasting performance of the proposed model. The results indicate that our model can significantly improve the accuracy of monthly electricity consumption forecasting even in the case that only a small number of training data is available.
