A Review of Fault Diagnosing Methods in Power Transmission Systems
Transient stability is important in power systems. Disturbances like faults need to be segregated to restore transient stability. A comprehensive review of fault diagnosing methods in the power transmission system is presented in this paper. Typically, voltage and current samples are deployed for analysis. Three tasks/topics; fault detection, classification, and location are presented separately to convey a more logical and comprehensive understanding of the concepts. Feature extractions, transformations with dimensionality reduction methods are discussed. Fault classification and location techniques largely use artificial intelligence (AI) and signal processing methods. After the discussion of overall methods and concepts, advancements and future aspects are discussed. Generalized strengths and weaknesses of different AI and machine learning-based algorithms are assessed. A comparison of different fault detection, classification, and location methods is also presented considering features, inputs, complexity, system used and results. This paper may serve as a guideline for the researchers to understand different methods and techniques in this field
Tradeoff between Approximation Accuracy and Complexity: HOSVD Based Complexity Reduction
Higher Order Singular Value Decomposition (HOSVD) based complexity reduction
method is proposed in this paper to polytopic model approximation
techniques. The main motivation is that the polytopic model has
exponentially growing computational complexity with the improvement of its
approximation property through, as usually practiced, increasing the density
of local linear models. The reduction technique proposed here is capable of
defining the contribution of each local linear model, which serves to remove
the weakly contributing ones according to a given threshold. Reducing the
number of local models leads directly to the complexity reduction. The
proposed reduction can also be performed on TS fuzzy model approximation
method. A detailed illustrative example of a non-linear dynamic model is
also discussed. The main contribution of this paper is the multi-dimensional
extension of the SVD reduction technique introduced in the preliminary work
[1]. The advantage of this extension is that the HOSVD based technique of
this paper can be applied to polytopic models varying in a multi-dimensional
parameter space unlike the reduction method of [1] which is designed for
one dimensional parameter space
Formal presentation of fuzzy systems with multiple sensor inputs
The paper addresses the problems of complexity in fuzzy rule based systems with multiple sensor inputs. The number of fuzzy rules in this case is an exponential function of the number of inputs. Some of the existing methods for rule base reductions are reviewed and their drawbacks summarized. As an alternative, a novel methodology for complexity management in fuzzy systems is presented which is based on formal presentation techniques such as integer tables. A Matlab example is shown illustrating the presentation of a fuzzy rule base with an integer table. Finally, some future research directions are outlined within the framework of the proposed methodology
Low rank surrogates for polymorphic fields with application to fuzzy-stochastic partial differential equations
We consider a general form of fuzzy-stochastic PDEs depending on the interaction of probabilistic
and non-probabilistic ("possibilistic") influences. Such a combined modelling of aleatoric
and epistemic uncertainties for instance can be applied beneficially in an engineering context for
real-world applications, where probabilistic modelling and expert knowledge has to be accounted
for. We examine existence and well-definedness of polymorphic PDEs in appropriate function
spaces. The fuzzy-stochastic dependence is described in a high-dimensional parameter space,
thus easily leading to an exponential complexity in practical computations.
To aleviate this severe obstacle in practise, a compressed low-rank approximation of the problem
formulation and the solution is derived. This is based on the Hierarchical Tucker format which
is constructed with solution samples by a non-intrusive tensor reconstruction algorithm. The performance
of the proposed model order reduction approach is demonstrated with two examples.
One of these is the ubiquitous groundwater flow model with Karhunen-Loeve coefficient field
which is generalized by a fuzzy correlation length
Improvement of Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Model for the Estimation of Nonlinear Functions
Two new and efficient approaches are presented to improve the local and global estimation of the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model. The main aim is to obtain high function approximation accuracy and fast convergence. The main problem is that the T-S identification method can not be applied when the membership functions are overlapped by pairs. The approaches developed here can be considered as generalized versions of T-S method with optimized performance. The first uses the minimum norm approach to search for an exact optimum solution at the expense of increasing complexity and computational cost. The second is a simple and less computational method, based on weighting of parameters. Illustrative examples are chosen to evaluate the potential, simplicity and remarkable performance of the proposed methods and the high accuracy obtained in comparison with the original T-S model
