Firstly, the wind speed time series data was processed using Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) to obtain multiple frequency components. Then, each individual frequency component was channeled into a combined prediction framework consisting of BP neural network (BPNN), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory Network (LSTM) after the execution of differential and normalization operations. Thereafter, the predictive outputs for each component underwent integration through a fully-connected neural architecture for data fusion processing, resulting in the final prediction. The VMD decomposition technique was introduced in a generalized CNN-LSTM prediction model; a BPNN model was utilized to predict high-frequency components obtained from VMD, and incorporated a fully connected neural network for data fusion of individual component predictions. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed improved VMD-BP-CNN-LSTM model outperformed other combined prediction models in terms of prediction accuracy, providing a solid foundation for optimizing the safe operation of wind farms. %K Wind Speed Forecast %K Long Short-Term Memory Network %K BP Neural Network %K Variational Mode Decomposition %K Data Fusion %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=130752
