Melanoma risk prediction of a validated genetic signature compared to the AJCC online predictor

Abstract

a b s t r a c tThis work presents a binary programming model for online coordination of directional overcurrent relay problems in interconnected power distribution and subtransmission systems. The proposed model considers discrete time dial and pickup current settings as in microprocessor-based relays. The coordination problem is solved for every topological change in the network and whose optimized settings are remotely adjusted on each relay through a SCADA system, enhancing the speed and sensitivity of the protection system. A pre-processing step is performed to ensure that the operation time of each relay be below the melting curve of the protected cable. Computational results for the binary programming model solved by CPLEX optimization package are compared to heuristic-based techniques. The simulation results indicates that our approach is suitable for online applications, since an optimal solution can be found in reduced times.
