MFAGCN: A new framework for identifying power grid branch parameters

In the parameter identification of power transmission system, deep learning methods stand out because of its effectiveness and robustness. However, deep learning methods usually suffers from two limitations: (1) The power grid topology structure data belongs to non-Euclidean data, so the traditional deep learning methods can't deal with this data, and it is easy to introduce noise. (2) The order of magnitude difference of different identi-fication targets is too large, and it is easy to ignore small targets if they are identified at the same time, which makes the identification accuracy decline. To overcome these limitations, a novel multi-scale folded attention graph convolution network (MFAGCN) is proposed, which uses U-block to sample data from multiple scales in the power grid, and not only fuses the global nodes in the power grid system, but also avoids over-fitting caused by too deep layers of the graph convolution network. In addition, a new loss function is designed for the multi -task module NestedTask-Block, which can balance the parameters of large targets and small targets, and realize multi-branch and multi-parameter simultaneous identification. The experimental results show that MFAGCN can achieve excellent performance through compared with the most advanced identification method.

Automated summary

A novel multi-scale folded attention graph convolution network (MFAGCN) is proposed for parameter identification in power transmission system. This network can handle non-Euclidean data, avoid decline in identification accuracy, and achieve simultaneous identification of multiple branches and parameters through a multi-task module.
