Ensemble classifiers boost power line outage localization performance

Researchers have explored the use of ensemble classifiers to improve the performance of line outage localization in power systems. Their study compared various ensemble methods against single-model approaches, utilizing data from observed transmission lines (OTLs) selected through greedy maximum coverage problem (MCP), high-eta, and random selection algorithms. The findings indicate that OTLs identified by the greedy MCP algorithm, combined with ensemble classifiers, significantly outperformed a base kNN classifier, with the extra-trees bagging technique achieving the highest F1 scores in many instances.

    Increasing Line Outage Localization Performance with Ensemble Classifiers

    arXiv:2607.17008v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In many cases, the outage of one transmission line in a system can be localized by monitoring the power flow of another line, and machine learning methods can be used to distinguish the cases under uncertainty. In this study, we e…
