In order to maintain the stable operation of power systems, quick and accurate transient stability assessment (TSA) after the fault clearance is important. Machine learning methods have been widely used in the transient stability analysis of power systems. However, how to make good use of time series data of PMUs and effectively balance the contradiction between rapidity and accuracy brings new challenges to TSA. To address this problem, we propose an anti-jitter dynamic evaluation method based on long-short term memory (LSTM) network. In this model, the trajectory cluster characteristics of generators power angles after fault clearance are taken as inputs, and an improved LSTM is used to learn the nonlinear mapping relationship between the input characteristics and the transient stability. Meanwhile, by the use of sliding time windows and anti-jitter mechanism, a hierarchical real-time prediction framework is constructed to effectively utilize the time series data of PMUs. The case studies on two systems indicate that the proposed method has superior evaluation accuracy and general performance. In addition, the proposed method can effectively evaluate the stability margin or instability degree of samples, which provides reliable reference information for emergency control.

Data-driven approaches using synchronous phasor measurements are playing an important role in transient stability assessment (TSA). For post-disturbance TSA, there is not a definite conclusion about how long the response time should be. Furthermore, previous studies seldom considered the confidence level of prediction results and specific stability degree. Since transient stability can develop very fast and cause tremendous economic losses, there is an urgent need for faster response speed, credible accurate prediction results, and specific stability degree. This paper proposed a hierarchical self-adaptive method using an integrated convolutional neural network (CNN)-based ensemble classifier to solve these problems. Firstly, a set of classifiers are sequentially organized at different response times to construct different layers of the proposed method. Secondly, the confidence integrated decision-making rules are defined. Those predicted as credible stable/unstable cases are sent into the stable/unstable regression model which is built at the corresponding decision time. The simulation results show that the proposed method can not only balance the accuracy and rapidity of the transient stability prediction, but also predict the stability degree with very low prediction errors, allowing more time and an instructive guide for emergency controls.
With a large number of distributed generators (DGs) and electrical vehicles (EVs) integrated into the power distribution system, the complexity of distribution system operation is increased, which arises to higher requirements for online reactive power optimization. This paper proposes two methods for online reactive power optimization, a scene-matching method based on Random Matrix (RM) features and a deep learning method based on Deep Belief Network (DBN). Firstly, utilizing the operation and ambient Big Data (BD) of the distribution system, we construct the high-dimension Random Matrices and extract 57 state features for the subsequent scene-matching and DBN training. Secondly, the feature-based scene-matching method is proposed. Furtherly, to effectively deal with the uncertainty of DGs and to avoid the performance deterioration of the scene-matching method under a new unknown scene, the DBN-based model is constructed and trained, with the former features as the inputs and the conventional reactive power control solutions as the outputs. This DBN model can learn the nonlinear complicated relationship between the system features and the reactive power control solutions. Finally, the comprehensive case studies have been conducted on the modified IEEE-37 nodes active distribution system, and the performances of the proposed two methods are compared with the conventional method. The results show that the DBN-based method possesses the better performance than the others, and it can reduce the network losses and node voltage deviations obviously, even under the new unknown and unmatched scenes. It does not depend on the distribution system model and parameters anymore and can provide online decision-making more quickly. The discussions of the two methods under different DG penetrations and the historical data volume were given, verifying the adaptability, robustness and generalization ability of the DBN-based method.
