Abstract

This paper proposes a new methodology which combines supervised and unsupervised learning for evaluating power system dynamic security. Based on the concept of stability margin, pre-fault power system conditions are assigned to the output neurons on the two-dimensional grid with the growing hierarchical self-organizing map technique (GHSOM) via supervised artificial neural networks (ANNs) which perform an estimation of post-fault power system state. The technique estimates the dynamic stability index that corresponds to the most critical value of synchronizing and damping torques of multimachine power systems. ANN-based pattern recognition is carried out with the growing hierarchical self-organizing feature mapping in order to provide adaptive neural network architecture during its unsupervised training process. Numerical tests, carried out on a IEEE 9 bus power system are presented and discussed. The analysis using such method provides accurate results and improves the effectiveness of system security evaluation.
