The fast growth of wind power is in urgent need of more accurate, reliable, and adaptive modeling and data analysis methods for the characterization and prediction of wind resource and wind power, as well as reliability evaluation of wind energy conversion systems. Bayesian methods have shown...

Short-term wind speed forecasting is of great importance for wind farm operations and the integration of wind energy into the power grid system. Adaptive and reliable methods and techniques of wind speed forecasts are urgently needed in view of the stochastic nature of wind resource varying from...

Accurate estimation of wind speed distribution is critical to the assessment of wind energy potential, the site selection of wind farms, and the operations management of wind power conversion systems. This paper proposes a new approach for deriving more reliable and robust wind speed...
