A system and method for forecasting energy usage load for a facility includes a server having a load forecasting application, which includes 1) a parameter identification module for determining periodic energy load usage of the facility and 2) a load prediction module for generating energy usage loa
A system and method for forecasting energy usage load for a facility includes a server having a load forecasting application, which includes 1) a parameter identification module for determining periodic energy load usage of the facility and 2) a load prediction module for generating energy usage load forecast profiles for the facility. The load forecasting application may include a database for storing information and a report module for generating energy usage load forecast profiles. The database may include a first set of matrices associated with the parameter identification module for storing periodic energy usage load parameter information, and a second set of matrices associated with the load prediction module for storing energy usage prediction information. The first set of matrices may include a matrix for storing coefficients for determining periodic changes in energy load usage, and a model parameter matrix for storing load parameter information.

The method of claim 6, further comprising the steps of generating said image characteristic values for one or more DNA spots by steps including: receiving a frame of image information including a plurality of spaced DNA spot images corresponding to a plurality of DNA spots, said image information including image intensity level information corresponding to said DNA spots; selecting a set of image information within said frame including a selected set of the DNA spot images; generating a grid including a plurality of spaced grid points corresponding to said selected DNA spot images, each grid point including position information indicating the position of the grid point within said frame; modifying a current position of at least one grid point corresponding to a spot image in said selected image to shift said grid point toward the corresponding spot image; segmenting the selected set of image information by selecting at least one image segment defining a segment area around a grid point and including a spot image with minimum distance from said grid point; and quantifying at least a portion of image information in said image segment to obtain image characteristic values for said image segment; wherein the image characteristic values include DNA information for a DNA spot corresponding to the DNA spot image in said image segment, said DNA information including gene expression values. 8. The method of claim 3, wherein: the steps of relating and selecting include associating each difference value to a segment of a bar graph having multiple segments, and the step of displaying the selected graphic values includes displaying said segments as a bar graph, whereby each bar graph corresponds to a DNA spot. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the area of each segment of each bar graph chart is a function of the magnitude of the associated difference value. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the DNA spots have a predetermined spatial arrangement, and wherein the step of displaying includes displaying the bar graphs in the same spatial arrangement, wherein each bar graph is displayed in the order of appearance of its corresponding DNA spot in said arrangement. 11. The method of claim 10, further comprising the steps of generating said image characteristic values for one or more DNA spots by steps including: receiving a frame of image information including a plurality of spaced DNA spot images corresponding to a plurality of DNA spots, said image information including image intensity level information corresponding to said DNA spots; selecting a set of image information within said frame including a selected set of the DNA spot images; generating a grid including a plurality of spaced grid points corresponding to said selected DNA spot images, each grid point including position information indicating the position of the grid point within said frame; modifying a current position of at least one grid point corresponding to a spot image in said selected image to shift said grid point toward the corresponding spot image; segmenting the selected set of image information by selecting at least one image segment defining a segment area around a grid point and including a spot image with minimum distance from said grid point; and quantifying at least a portion of image information in said image segment to obtain image characteristic values for said image segment; wherein the image characteristic values include DNA information for a DNA spot corresponding to the DNA spot image in said image segment, said DNA information including gene expression values. 12. The method of claim 10, further comprising: wherein the image information for each DNA spot is generated according to the following steps: for each DNA spot image: relating at least a portion of said image characteristic values corresponding values t o a range of graphic values; selecting a graphic value for each image characteristic value; and, displaying the selected graphic values; and, wherein said image information corresponds to a plurality of DNA spot image sets corresponding to a plurality of DNA spots, each image set including a plurality of DNA spot images corresponding to a DNA spot. 13. The method of claim 2, further comprising the steps of generating said image characteristic values for one or more DNA spots by steps including: receiving a frame of image information including a plurality of spaced DNA spot images corresponding to a plurality of DNA spots, said image information including image intensity level information corresponding to said DNA spots; selecting a set of image information within said frame including a selected set of the DNA spot images; generating a grid including a plurality of spaced grid points corresponding to said selected DNA spot images, each grid point including position information indicating the position of the grid point within said frame; modifying a current position of at least one grid point corresponding to a spot image in said selected image to shift said grid point toward the corresponding spot image; segmenting the selected set of image information by selecting at least one image segment defining a segment area around a grid point and including a spot image with minimum distance from said grid point; and quantifying at least a portion of image information in said image segment to obtain image characteristic values for said image segment; wherein the image characteristic values include DNA information for a DNA spot corresponding to the DNA spot image in said image segment, said DNA information including gene expression values. 14. The method of claim 2, further comprising: wherein the image information for each DNA spot is generated according to the following steps: for each DNA spot image: relating at least a portion of said image characteristic values corresponding values to a range of graphic values; selecting a graphic value for each image characteristic value; and, displaying the selected graphic values; and, wherein said image information corresponds to a plurality of DNA spot image sets corresponding to a plurality of DNA spots, each image set including a DNA spot images corresponding to a DNA spot. 15.
