Abstract

In view of the influence of different cell state parameters on the estimation of power battery packs’ state of charge (SOC), based on the travel data of electric vehicles in Beijing, random forest is used to reduce dimensionality, and the aging and thermoelectric characteristic parameters which have high correlation are selected as the input features of long short-term memory (LSTM). Then, using grid search to optimize the LSTM structure. Finally construct a data-driven method for high robustness prediction of battery SOC. The results show that the maximum absolute error (MaxAE) of the proposed SOC prediction method is only 1.539% under different temperatures, battery aging degrees and operating conditions. Compared with the two SOC prediction methods of gate recurrent unit (GRU) and recurrent neural network (RNN) , the MaxAE is reduced by 71.8% and 26.1% respectively. The research results provide a method basis for improving the robustness of power battery SOC estimation.

  • Wu et al. applied random forest methods to reduce dimensionality of battery aging and thermoelectric characteristics before feeding data into LSTM and GRU networks for SOC estimation.

    “Wu et al. applied random forest methods to reduce the dimensionality of battery aging and thermoelectric characteristics before feeding the data into LSTM and GRU networks for SOC estimation[103].”

    From Advancements in the estimation of the state of charge of lithium-ion battery: a comprehensive review of traditional and deep learning approaches (2025) · cites this paper as [103]

    The Abstract and §4.2 say Wu et al. used random forest to select aging and thermoelectric features as inputs to an LSTM SOC model. Section 5 describes a GRU network used for comparison, but does not establish that the random-forest-selected features were fed into the GRU as the claim states.

  • ML methods for feature extraction from raw input data are highly effective, with some methods even surpassing Transformer models and top implementations such as PatchTST in time series prediction.

    “First, ML methods for feature extraction from raw input data are highly effective[90,91,103], with some methods even surpassing[91] Transformer models and top implementations such as PatchTST in time series prediction.”

    From Advancements in the estimation of the state of charge of lithium-ion battery: a comprehensive review of traditional and deep learning approaches (2025) · cites this paper as [103]

    Sections 3.1–3.2 describe using random forest to select input features, and Section 5.1 reports improved battery state-of-charge prediction with the selected features. This supports the feature-selection point in this setting, but the paper does not report a comparison with Transformer models or PatchTST. Page numbers were not supplied in our copy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
