Abstract:Feature extraction of electrical load plays a vital role in providing a reliable basis and guidance for power companies. In this paper, we propose a novel clustering algorithm named the Density-based Matrix Transformation (DBMT) Clustering method to extract features (peaks, valleys and trends) of electrical load curves. The main objective of the algorithm is to reorder the data items until the data items belonging to the same cluster are organized together; that is, the adjacent matrix is rearranged to the typ… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
