Comparative analysis of machine learning techniques for temperature and humidity prediction in photovoltaic environments

This research conducts a comparative analysis of nine Machine Learning (ML) models for temperature and humidity prediction in Photovoltaic (PV) environments. Using a dataset of 5,000 samples (80% for training, 20% for testing), the models-Support Vector Regression (SVR), Lasso Regression, Ridge Regression (RR), Linear Regression (LR), AdaBoost, Gradient Boosting (GB), Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), and eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost)-were evaluated based on Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), and the Coefficient of Determination (R²). For temperature prediction, XGBoost demonstrated the best performance, achieving the lowest MAE of 1.544, the lowest RMSE of 1.242, and the…
