To guard against the risk of adverse scenarios, traditional optimisation techniques incorporate uncertainty on the basis of prior knowledge on its distribution. In this paper, we show how, based on a limited amount of historical data, we can generate from a low-dimensional space the underlying structure of uncertainty that could then be used in such optimisation frameworks. To this end, we first exploit the correlation between the sources of uncertainty through a principal component analysis to reduce dimensionality. Next, we perform clustering to reveal the typical uncertainty patterns, and finally we generate polyhedral uncertainty sets based on a kernel density estimation (KDE) of marginal probability functions.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.01478v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2212.01478v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"a-data-driven-uncertainty-modelling-and","repo_url":"https://github.com/julien-vaes/uncertainty_modelling_for_energy","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
