Multi-source data fusion for power outage warning based on transformer model

Abstract

Abstract In this study, we propose a method that uses the Transformer model to enhance power outage alerts by integrating data from multiple sources. By integrating data from various sources, including operational data from the local distribution network and meteorological data, we have constructed a comprehensive multi-source data framework for power outage warnings. The Transformer model, known for its ability to capture complex dependencies and patterns, has been employed to extract features and make accurate predictions. Results on actual power system data have shown that our approach significantly boosts the accuracy and stability of predictions. The fusion of multi-source data has enabled timely maintenance and protection measures, reducing the duration and impact of power outages. The findings from this study have provided valuable insights for power outage warnings and future research on multi-source data fusion.
