The incorporation of target distribution significantly enhances the success of deep clustering. However, most of the related deep clustering methods suffer from two drawbacks: (1) manually-designed target distribution functions with uncertain performance and (2) cluster misassignment accumulation. To address these issues, a Self-Correcting Clustering (Self-CC) framework is proposed. In Self-CC, a ...Show More
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has proven to be effective for real-time Power grid Dispatching and Control (PDC) but requires intensive computing resources and has low efficiency. Most research employs expertise demonstrations to accelerate the training process, but neglects the rules derived from the experience. To boost the DRL efficiency with PDC rules, a Knowledge Distillation based Dueling...Show More
Power system briefings allow grid dispatchers to quickly understand the operating status of the power system and provide decision support, therefore the generation of power system briefings is of great importance to the stable operation of the power system. Although existing summary generation studies have made some progress, most of them have not focused on the power system domain, especially the...Show More
The transformation of data from the source domain into the target domain by minimizing their marginal and conditional distribution disparity is a common strategy in transfer learning. The distributions are measured using first-order, second-order, or higher-order data statistics. However, in brain-computer interface research, the scarcity of target-domain electroencephalograph (EEG) samples poses ...Show More
Streaming data of machines is continuously collected in practical applications, which produces new fault information with respect to the health change. Therefore, a lifelong-learning intelligent diagnosis model is desired for new fault type recognition based on the streaming data. However, existing research in intelligent fault diagnosis always treats new fault type detection and class incremental...Show More
Although deep networks have succeeded in various signal classification tasks, the time sequence samples used to train the deep models are usually required to reach a certain length. Especially, in brain computer interface (BCI) research, around 3.5s-long motor imagery (MI) Electroencephalography (EEG) samples are needed to obtain satisfactory classification performance. This time-span requirement ...Show More
The timely evaluation of post-contingency transient stability is crucial for power system control and decision-making. However, a major challenge lies in how to evaluate the stability within the shortest possible time. Most existing methods require a fixed length of time window for training an evaluation model, which may not be suitable for all cases. The fixed time window can delay the identifica...Show More
Multiple object tracking is one of the critical directions in computer vision research. In the application of vision-based tracking methods, cameras are sometimes installed far from the targets to obtain a global view. There would be a large number of targets in the videos with relatively low resolution, which increases the difficulty of visual tracking. Applying existing tracking methods directly...Show More
As an important part of the construction of smart grids, distribution network fault location technology has received widespread attention to improve the level of grid automation. However, the complex structure and poor measurement conditions of distribution network have seriously restricted its application. By applying the synchronous vector information of Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU), this artic...Show More
Many deep-learning methods have been developed for fault diagnosis. However, due to the difficulty of collecting and labeling machine fault data, the datasets in some practical applications are relatively much smaller than the other big data benchmarks. In addition, the fault data come from different machines. Therefore, on some occasions, fault diagnosis is a multidomain problem with small data, ...Show More
Deep learning (DL) based diagnosis models have to be trained by large quantities of monitoring data of machines. However, in real-case scenarios, machines operate under the normal condition in most of their life time while faults seldom happen. Therefore, though massive data are accessible, most are data of the normal condition while fault data are still extremely limited. In other words, fault di...Show More
In power grid research, the high complexity of the power generation and distribution requires the power grid system to be robust and resilient. To assure the stability of the power grid, massive human intervention is necessary currently, which is labor intensive and inflexible. However, considering the vital importance of the power grid, it is impossible to leave human being out of the power syste...Show More
Deep clustering methods have obtained excellent performance on clustering tasks with the benefit of feature representations learned with deep neural networks. Even though promising performance of deep clustering has been shown in different applications, the efficiency of the features achieved is limited by the symmetric structure of the autoencoders employed. Deeper autoencoder will lead to less r...Show More
