A Novel Data Association Algorithm for Unequal Length Fluctuant Sequence

AbstractThere are quantities of such sensors as radar, ESM, navigator in aerospace areas and the sequence data is the most ordinary data in sensor domain. How to mine the information of these data has attracted a great interest in data mining. But sequence data is easily interfered and produces some fluctuant points. When dealing with these sequences, traditional sequence similarity measurement such as Euclidean distance arises large error, especially for unequal length fluctuant sequence. A novel average weight 1-norm unequal length fluctuant sequence similarity measurement algorithm based on dynamic time warping (DTW) is proposed to solve this problem. It constructs an absolute distance matrix based on DTW firstly, then weight average weight 1-norm and modify it with modifying factor to measure the distance of unequal length fluctuant sequence. It solves the fluctuation sensitivity of maximum distance measurement algorithm. Finally transform distance to similarity as the index of the association, associate the sequence data according to the maximum similarity association rule. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm when associating unequal length fluctuant sequence, association rate is above 70% and simulate the effect of variation of the sequence length, fluctuant rate and processing time to the proposed algorithm

Model and Topological Characteristics of Power Distribution System Security Region

As an important tool of transmission system dispatching, the region-based method has just been introduced into distribution area with the ongoing smart distribution grid initiatives. First, a more accurate distribution system security region (DSSR) model is proposed. The proposed model is based on detailed feeder-interconnected topology, and both substation transformer and feeder N-1 contingencies are considered. Second, generic characteristics of DSSR are discussed and mathematically proved. That is, DSSR is a dense set of which boundary has no suspension and can be expressed by several union subsurfaces. Finally, the results from both a test case and a practical case demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed modeling approach; the shape of DSSR is also illustrated by means of 2- and 3-dimensional visualization. Moreover, the DSSR-based assessment and control are preliminary illustrated to show the application of DSSR. The researches in this paper are fundamental work to develop new security region theory for future distribution systems
