Transfer learning, also referred as knowledge transfer, aims at reusing knowledge from a source dataset to a similar target one. While several studies address the problem of what to transfer, the very important question of when to answer remains mostly unanswered, especially from a theoretical point-of-view for regression problems. A new theoretica...

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has urged many governments in the world to enforce a strict lockdown where all nonessential businesses are closed and citizens are ordered to stay at home. One of the consequences of this policy is a significant change in electricity consumption patterns. Since load forecasting models rely on calenda...

Transfer learning, also referred as knowledge transfer, aims at reusing knowledge from a source dataset to a similar target one. While many empirical studies illustrate the benefits of transfer learning, few theoretical results are established especially for regression problems. In this paper a theoretical framework for the problem of parameter tra...

Forecasting wind power generation up to a few hours ahead is of the utmost importance for the efficient operation of power systems and for participation in electricity markets. Recent statistical learning approaches exploit spatiotemporal dependence patterns among neighbouring sites, but their requirement of sharing confidential data with third par...

While ubiquitous, textual sources of information such as company reports, social media posts, etc. are hardly included in prediction algorithms for time series, despite the relevant information they may contain. In this work, openly accessible daily weather reports from France and the United-Kingdom are leveraged to predict time series of national...
