The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

The appearances of the phrase in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are separate or alternative embodiments mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by one skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
The inventor of the application finds that the difference of prediction errors in user experience is not considered when the water consumption of a water heater user is predicted by the traditional method through long-term research, namely, the phenomenon that the user perception experience is worse when the predicted water consumption is smaller than the actual water consumption of the user is not considered. Therefore, the method for predicting the water consumption of the water heater is provided, and when a water consumption prediction model is established, the difference of prediction errors in user experience is taken into consideration as an important parameter.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart illustrating an embodiment of a method for predicting water consumption of a water heater according to the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 1, the method comprises the steps of:
and step S10, acquiring the historical water consumption of the water heater.
In this step, the specific time when the user obtains the historical water consumption can be flexibly set according to the actual water consumption condition, and considering that the user has certain periodicity and habituation when using the electric water heater, the time when the user obtains the historical water consumption can be determined according to the use period or the use habit of the user, for example, the historical water consumption of one period or a plurality of periods closest to the day to be measured can be obtained. In addition, as can be seen from the big data of the water consumption of the user, the user has different water demands in different time periods of each day, for example, the water demand of most users in the time period from 19 o 'clock to 21 o' clock of each day is much higher than that of other time periods of the day. Therefore, the historical water consumption of the user in different periods can be acquired in different periods according to the water consumption habit of the user.
In addition, after the historical water consumption of the water heater is obtained, a plurality of historical water statistical characteristics about the historical water consumption can be calculated and obtained according to the obtained historical water consumption, such as the maximum value, the minimum value, the average value, the standard deviation and the like of the plurality of historical water consumption.
Optionally, the historical water usage statistics are input into a water usage prediction model, and a predicted water usage of the water heater output by the water usage prediction model is obtained.
In one embodiment, the following table shows the eight historical water usage statistics obtained for X1-X8.

In one embodiment, the water flow in the water using process of the user can be collected through a water flow sensor installed inside the water heater, and then the historical water using amount of the water heater can be obtained after the collected water flow is multiplied by the water using time length.
In another embodiment, considering that some current water heaters may not be provided with a water flow sensor for some reasons, and therefore the historical water consumption of the water heater without the water flow sensor is not estimated well, another way for obtaining the historical water consumption is provided. Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flowchart illustrating an embodiment of step S10 in fig. 1. The method comprises the following steps of obtaining the historical water consumption of the water heater through the historical water consumption of the water heater, specifically:
step S11, obtaining the historical water consumption of the water heater, referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart of the step S11 in fig. 2. Specifically, step S11 may further include the following sub-steps:
and step S111, acquiring the power consumption of the water in the history barrel corresponding to the temperature rise of the water in the water heater.
In one embodiment, the historical amount of water consumed in the barrel corresponding to the increase in water temperature in the water heater may be calculated using the initial and final internal bladder temperatures of the water heater. Specifically, the power consumption W of the water in the historical barrel corresponding to the temperature rise of the water in the water heater can be obtained according to the following formula1
Figure BDA0002763374430000071
Wherein, TFinally, the product is processedIndicating the final temperature, T, in the tank of the water heaterInitialIndicating the initial in-bladder temperature of the water heater,v denotes the volume of the water heater.
It can be understood that the final tank temperature and the initial tank temperature of the water heater both represent the temperature of the water in the tank of the water heater and can be obtained by a temperature sensor in the tank.
And step S112, calculating the historical water consumption of the water heater according to the historical water consumption of the water in the historical barrel and the historical total power consumption of the water heater. It can be understood that one part of the historical total power consumption of the water heater is used for heating the water in the water heater liner, namely the power consumption of the water in the historical barrel corresponding to the rise of the water temperature in the water heater, and the other part of the historical total power consumption of the water heater is used for heating the historical water consumption used by the user, namely the power consumption of the historical water, so the historical water power consumption W of the water heater can be calculated according to the following formula2
W2=K*W-W1
Wherein W represents the total historical power consumption of the water heater, K represents the loss coefficient, and W1And the power consumption of the water in the historical barrel corresponding to the temperature rise of the water in the water heater is shown.
And step S12, calculating the historical water consumption of the water heater according to the historical water consumption of the water heater.
The historical water consumption of the water heater can be calculated according to the following formula:
Figure BDA0002763374430000081
wherein, TDischarging waterShows the appropriate sensible temperature, T, of waterInflow waterIndicating the inlet water temperature, W, of the water heater2The power consumption of the water heater is shown in the history, and V is the volume of the water heater.
By the mode, the historical water consumption of the water heater can be calculated by utilizing the historical water consumption, and the problem that the historical water consumption of the water heater cannot be obtained due to the fact that some sensors are not provided with water flow sensors in the market can be solved.
And step S20, inputting the historical water consumption of the water heater into the water consumption prediction model, and obtaining the predicted water consumption of the water heater output by the water consumption prediction model.
Optionally, the water consumption prediction model is obtained by using the historical water consumption of the water heater corresponding to the training water consumption event as sample input data in advance, using the predicted water consumption of the water heater corresponding to the training water consumption event as sample output data, and training based on a machine learning algorithm, wherein in the training process of the water consumption prediction model, a difference value obtained by subtracting the predicted water consumption of the water heater from the actual water consumption of the water heater is used as a regularization term of a loss function of the water consumption prediction model.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic flowchart illustrating an embodiment of step S20 in fig. 1. Specifically, step S20 may include the following sub-steps:
step S21: a training water event is obtained.
When the water consumption prediction model is established, a preset number of training water events (for example, 150 ten thousand training water events) need to be established, where the established training water events can be training water events established from water heaters equipped with water flow sensors or other water flow measuring devices, and need to correspond to a certain actual water consumption.
Step S22: and constructing a water consumption prediction model based on a machine learning algorithm by utilizing the training water consumption event.
And (3) taking the historical water consumption corresponding to each training water use event as sample input data, taking the predicted water use information corresponding to each training water use event output by the water use prediction model as sample output data, and performing model training based on a machine learning algorithm to obtain a water use prediction model.
Optionally, a water consumption prediction model is established based on a linear regression equation, and the water consumption prediction model is as follows:
Figure BDA0002763374430000091
wherein, Xi(i ═ 1, … …, m) is the ith historical water usage characteristic, ai(i-1, … …, m) represents the ith historyAnd (5) a parameter to be measured corresponding to the water consumption characteristic.
Therefore, when the water consumption prediction model is established, the difference of the prediction error in the user experience is taken into consideration as an important parameter. That is, in the training process of the water consumption prediction model, the difference value obtained by subtracting the predicted water consumption of the water heater from the actual water consumption of the water heater is used as a regularization item of a loss function of the water consumption prediction model, and by the method, the predicted water consumption can be larger than the actual water consumption of a user as much as possible on the basis that the predicted water consumption is close to the actual water consumption of the user as much as possible, so that the embarrassing situation that the user does not have hot water suddenly in the water consumption process is avoided, and the user experience is improved.
Optionally, the constructed loss function includes a first regularization term, a second regularization term, the first regularization term being the sum of squares of coefficients in a linear regression equation, i.e., the first regularization term is a function of the first regularization term and the second regularization term
Figure BDA0002763374430000092
The second regularization term is the difference between the actual water consumption of the water heater minus the predicted water consumption of the water heater, i.e.
Figure BDA0002763374430000093
Specifically, the loss function is constructed as:
Figure BDA0002763374430000094
wherein, yiThe actual water usage of the water heater for the ith training water event,
Figure BDA0002763374430000095
the predicted water consumption of the ith water heater is output by the water consumption prediction model, lambda and gamma are hyper-parameters, and lambda and gamma are>0, n is the total number of training water events, ajFor the jth coefficient of the linear regression equation, m represents m lines of the linear regression equationAnd (4) counting. In the training process, the closer the loss function E is to zero, the more accurate the water consumption prediction model representing the training is, and the smaller the loss function E is, the larger the water consumption prediction quantity output by the water consumption prediction model is, the more the actual water consumption of the water heater is, so that the situation of meeting hot water shortage can be reduced in the process of using the water heater by a user, and the user experience is improved.
Step S23: inputting the historical water consumption of the water heater into the water consumption prediction model, and obtaining the predicted water consumption of the water heater output by the water consumption prediction model.
Alternatively, considering that the water consumption behavior of the water heater user not only has strong periodicity, but also is influenced by weather and holidays, the temperature data and the holiday data can be respectively used as one or more characteristics when the water consumption prediction model is established and used for training the water consumption prediction model by combining the historical water consumption of the water heater.
It is to be understood that the temperature data represents temperature data of the region where the water heater is located, and a plurality of temperature data may be acquired, such as the highest temperature of the region where the current day is located, the lowest temperature of the region where the current day is located, the average temperature of the region where the current day is located, the highest temperature of the region where the current day is located-the lowest temperature of the region where the current day is located, and the like, without being particularly limited thereto. Alternatively, the temperature data can be obtained in various ways, such as obtaining the temperature data through a weather APP of the mobile terminal, or obtaining the temperature data through a weather forecast of a TV terminal, and the like.
For example, the acquired air temperature data Feature1-Feature8 are shown in the following table.
Figure BDA0002763374430000101
The holiday data represents whether the day corresponding to the actual water consumption is a holiday or not when the water consumption prediction model is trained, for example, if the day corresponding to the actual water consumption is a holiday, the holiday data of the actual water consumption corresponding to the training water consumption event is 1, otherwise, the holiday data is 0.
Specifically, when the water consumption prediction model is trained, historical water consumption, air temperature data and holiday data of a water heater corresponding to a training water consumption event are used as sample input data, the predicted water consumption of the water heater corresponding to the training water consumption event is used as sample output data, and the water consumption prediction model is obtained by training based on a machine learning algorithm.
Specifically, a water consumption prediction model is established based on a linear regression equation, and the water consumption prediction model is as follows:
Figure BDA0002763374430000111
wherein, Xi(i ═ 1, … …, m) is the ith historical water usage characteristic, aiAnd (i-1, … …, x) represents a parameter to be measured corresponding to the ith historical water consumption characteristic. ZjRepresents the jth air temperature data, biAnd C represents the parameter to be measured corresponding to the holiday data.
Similarly, the loss function is constructed as follows:
Figure BDA0002763374430000112
wherein, yiThe actual water usage of the water heater for the ith training water event,
Figure BDA0002763374430000113
the predicted water consumption of the ith water heater is output by the water consumption prediction model, lambda and gamma are hyper-parameters, and lambda and gamma are>0, n is the total number of training water events.
Similarly, after the water consumption prediction model is trained, the predicted water consumption of the water heater output by the water consumption prediction model can be obtained only by inputting the historical water consumption of the water heater, the air temperature data of the day to be measured and the holiday data of the day to be measured into the water consumption prediction model.
In this embodiment, in order to avoid the situation that the established water consumption prediction model has an abnormal extreme value with respect to the prediction of the predicted water consumption, the upper and lower limits of the predicted water consumption output by the model can be limited, so that the prediction result of the model can better meet the actual situation.
Specifically, for safety reasons, a maximum temperature allowed to be set exists in a common water heater, and therefore, the extreme value can be set and corrected based on the maximum temperature allowed to be set in the water heater. Specifically, the predicted water usage of the water heater may be extremally corrected according to the following equation:
Figure BDA0002763374430000121
wherein, THighest point of the designIndicating the maximum temperature, T, allowed to be set by the water heaterDischarging waterShows the appropriate sensible temperature, T, of waterInflow waterThe water inlet temperature of the water heater is shown, and V is the volume of the water heater.
Different types, different brands of water heaters may have different set maximum temperatures. For example, the maximum set temperature of a storage type electric water heater is mostly about 75 degrees, the instantaneous electric water heater is about 80 degrees, the maximum set water temperature of an air energy water heater without an auxiliary electric heating function is about 60 degrees, and the gas water heater is lower.
In general, the appropriate sensible temperature of water is set to be between 37 and 42 degrees, and the water inlet temperature of the water heater can be replaced by the water temperature of a cold water pipe at the position of the water heater equipment.
The meaning of this formula is: if the output predicted water consumption of the water heater is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to
Figure BDA0002763374430000122
The predicted water usage is taken as the final predicted water usage. If the predicted water consumption is more than
Figure BDA0002763374430000123
Then will be
Figure BDA0002763374430000124
As the final predicted water consumption, if the predicted water consumption is less than 0, the final predicted water consumption is 0.
Generally, the water consumption habits of users in the same time period of each day are similar, and therefore, in a specific embodiment, the water consumption prediction method for the water heater provided by the embodiment can establish a water consumption prediction model corresponding to each time period according to the historical water consumption corresponding to each time period, and obtain the predicted water consumption of each time period of the day to be measured in time periods. For example, to predict the predicted water consumption of a water heater on a certain day in the future, the 24 hours of the day can be divided into 24 time periods according to the whole point, the historical water consumption of the water heater corresponding to each time period is respectively obtained, a water consumption prediction model corresponding to each time period is established, the predicted water consumption corresponding to each time period is finally obtained, and the predicted water consumption corresponding to the 24 time periods is combined, so that the predicted water consumption of the certain day in the future can be obtained.
The application provides a water consumption prediction method for a water heater, a water consumption prediction model is constructed, and in the training process of the water consumption prediction model, a difference value obtained by subtracting the predicted water consumption of the water heater from the actual water consumption of the water heater is used as a regularization term of a loss function of the water consumption prediction model. And finally, inputting the obtained historical water consumption of the water heater into a trained water consumption prediction model, and outputting to obtain the predicted water consumption of the water heater. By the mode, the situation that the water is cut off (hot water) when the user uses the water can be reduced, and the user experience is further improved.
