Exformer: A Transformer-Based Forecasting Framework with Temporal Knowledge Assistance for Multistep Multivariate Influent Prediction in Wastewater Treatment Plants
Accurate forecasting of influent flow rates and water quality is of great importance to facilitate wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) towards early fault warning and optimal operations. However, due to the seasonality, complex multivariate nexus and inherent disturbances, the predictive performance of WWTP influent...
