Research Finds Hybrid Model for Adaptive Temperature and Humidity Forecasting in Solar Greenhouses

Researchers from Shenyang Agricultural University have developed a new RIME-optimized CNN-BiLSTM hybrid model for precise climate forecasting to protect agriculture. This model addresses the challenges of large diurnal temperature difference and extreme weather in Northeast China, which can significantly impact crop production. By using Pearson correlation analysis and the RIME algorithm, the model can automatically optimize hyperparameters to enhance spatiotemporal feature extraction and sequence learning. Experimental results show significant improvements in temperature and humidity prediction accuracy, with a 46% and 41% decrease in mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean square error (RMSE) respectively.
