Synthetic Electric Vehicle Charging Session Generation Using a Conditional Variational Autoencoder

The paper introduces a conditional variational autoencoder (CVAE) to generate synthetic electric vehicle (EV) charging sessions from real transaction-level data. It trains on engineered features such as plug‑in duration, charging duration, delivered energy, charging delay, and cyclical time‑of‑week, conditioning on day of week and managed charging status. Evaluation shows the synthetic data preserves key statistical properties and supports predictive modelling tasks via a Train‑on‑Synthetic‑Test‑on‑Real protocol.

Conditional Diffusion Models for Energy-Efficient Driving

The paper presents a conditional diffusion model that generates electric vehicle battery‑current profiles conditioned on route features such as velocity and ambient temperature. Using a latent conditioning encoder and a temporal 1D U‑Net denoising backbone, the model produces realistic current trajectories that capture both the overall envelope and sharp transient events. On a dataset of 12,000 trips from nine vehicles, the model achieves a Wasserstein distance of 0.0029, outperforming direct condition injection by 89.1% in Wasserstein distance and 52.8% in MAE.

A Behavior-Guided Online Probabilistic Forecasting Method for Electric vehicle Charging Loads

The paper introduces a behavior-guided online probabilistic forecasting framework for electric vehicle charging loads that captures both persistent station-specific patterns and recent behavioral changes through a dual-timescale representation. It employs semantic encoding of behavioral shifts to adapt forecasts in a drift-aware manner and uses a delayed-feedback mechanism to maintain temporal consistency across horizons. Experiments on ten real-world charging stations show consistent improvements over conventional models, reducing MSE and Pinball loss by up to 22.6% for 4‑hour ahead forecasts.

LoaDiff: Conditional Generation of Electricity Consumption Time Series for Energy Analytics

LoaDiff is a diffusion-based generative model that produces year-long, sub-hourly smart‑meter electricity consumption time series. It can be conditioned on static household attributes like appliance ownership and dynamic factors such as calendar dates and outdoor temperature. Evaluations on three residential datasets show that LoaDiff generates realistic, diverse load profiles, limits memorization, retains useful information for downstream tasks, and responds coherently to conditioning changes.

Electric Vehicle Charging Station Location Selection using Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI)

The paper presents a GeoAI framework that uses a variational autoencoder and a graph convolutional network to analyze high‑dimensional geospatial data for electric vehicle charging station location selection. By compressing EV usage, land‑use, population, and traffic attributes into a latent space, the model predicts suitable future station sites and identifies 27 new candidates in Bryan‑College Station, Texas. Two policy scenarios—maximizing geospatial similarity versus minimizing travel distance—demonstrate how different strategic objectives influence station placement outcomes.

SynthCharge: An Electric Vehicle Routing Instance Generator with Feasibility Screening to Enable Learning-Based Optimization and Benchmarking

SynthCharge is a parametric generator that creates diverse, feasibility‑screened instances of the electric vehicle routing problem with time windows (EVRPTW). It produces instances ranging from 5 to 100 customers (up to 500 in theory) with adaptive energy capacity scaling and range‑aware charging station placement, filtering out unsolvable cases via a fast feasibility screening process. This dynamic benchmarking infrastructure enables systematic evaluation of learning‑based routing and data‑driven approaches.
