Due to the strict requirements of extremely high accuracy and fast computational speed, real-time transient stability assessment (TSA) has always been a tough problem in power system analysis. Fortunately, the development of artificial intelligence and big data technologies provide the new prospective methods to this issue, and there have been some successful trials on using intelligent method, such as support vector machine (SVM) method. However, the traditional SVM method cannot avoid false classification, and the interpretability of the results needs to be strengthened and clear. This paper proposes a new strategy to solve the shortcomings of traditional SVM, which can improve the interpretability of results, and avoid the problem of false alarms and missed alarms. In this strategy, two improved SVMs, which are called aggressive support vector machine (ASVM) and conservative support vector machine (CSVM), are proposed to improve the accuracy of the classification. And two improved SVMs can ensure the stability or instability of the power system in most cases. For the small amount of cases with undetermined stability, a new concept of grey region (GR) is built to measure the uncertainty of the results, and GR can assessment the instable probability of the power system. Cases studies on IEEE 39-bus system and realistic provincial power grid illustrate the effectiveness and practicability of the proposed strategy.
The real-time transient stability assessment (TSA) and emergency control are effective measures to suppress accident expansion, prevent system instability, and avoid large-scale power outages in the event of power system failure. However, real-time assessment is extremely demanding on computing speed, and the traditional method is not competent. In this paper, an improved deep belief network (DBN) is proposed for the fast assessment of transient stability, which considers the structural characteristics of power system in the construction of loss function. Deep learning has been effective in many fields, but usually is considered as a black-box model. From the perspective of machine learning interpretation, this paper proposes a local linear interpreter (LLI) model, and tries to give a reasonable interpretation of the relationship between the system features and the assessment result, and illustrates the conversion process from the input feature space to the high-dimension representation space. The proposed method is tested on an IEEE new England test system and demonstrated on a regional power system in China. The result demonstrates that the proposed method has rapidity, high accuracy and good interpretability in transient stability assessment.
In this paper, we develop an on‐the‐fly and incremental technique for fault diagnosis of discrete event systems modeled by labeled Petri nets, in order to tackle the combinatorial explosion problem. K‐diagnosability, diagnosability, Kmin (the minimum K ensuring diagnosability) and on‐line diagnosis are solved on the basis of the on‐the‐fly and incremental building of two structures, called respectively fault marking graph and fault marking set graph, in parallel. We build on existing results, namely those establishing necessary and sufficient conditions for diagnosability, but we bring mechanisms to make the checking of such conditions potentially more efficient. We show that, in general, analyzing or even building the whole reachability graph is unnecessary to analyze diagnosability and build an on‐line diagnoser. Our technique was implemented in a prototype tool called OF‐PENDA, and a railway level crossing benchmark is used to make a comparative discussion pertaining to efficiency in terms of time and memory relative to some existing approaches.
