Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Fuzzy Information Granulation
- (1)
- Determine the mean value R. R = median(T) where T is the time series put in ascending order.
- (2)
- Determine the lower bound LOW.
- (3)
- Determine the upper bound UP.
- (4)
- Determine the fuzzy particle P.
3. Chaotic Particle Swarm Optimized Wavelet Neural Network
- (1)
- The randomness of the initialization process may result in inferior solutions, affecting the convergence of the evolutionary process.
- (2)
- The solution obtained by this algorithm may be a local optimal solution rather than a global optimal solution.
- (1)
- Initialize the parameters to generate a random D-dimensional vector (z1 = (z11, z12, …, z1D)) with the value of each component being between 0 and 1. Get N vectors z1, z2, …, zn by iteration according to Equation (9). Additionally, transform the components of each vector into the corresponding value range.
- (2)
- Call the WNN to obtain the fitness value of the particles. Select M particles from the N populations to form the initial population. Additionally, generate the initial velocity of the M particles by chaotic series.
- (3)
- Update the individual extremum pBest if the particle fitness value is superior to pBest. Additionally, update the global extremum gBest if the particle fitness value is superior to gBest. Then update the particle’s position and velocity.
- (4)
- Perform chaotic optimization to the current optimal position PgBest = (pg1, pg2, …, pgD). Additionally, map PgBest to 0–1 according to:
- (5)
- Calculate the fitness value of the new solution and replace the position of any particle in the current population with the best solution P*.
- (6)
- Determine whether the termination condition is reached. If not, return to step (3) to continue iteration. Otherwise, the flow terminates and the selected parameters are obtained.
4. Prediction Model for Transformer Winding Hotspot Temperature Fluctuation Range
- (1)
- Extract the sample data. Determine the size of granulation time window according to the sample data. The granulation data should be able to describe the trend of the original sample data. Perform FIG to sample data to obtain LOW, R, and UP.
- (2)
- If the amount of data is huge, the output layer node shall be determined according to forecast demand. The input layer node n shall be determined according to the intrinsic regularity of the historical data. Additionally, the number of hidden layer node shall be m = 2n + 1.If the amount of data to be processed is limited, the output layer node shall be determined according to forecast demand, while the input layer node and the hidden layer node shall be determined by traversing method.
- (3)
- The structural parameters that need to be optimized are determined when the input layer, the hidden layer, and the output layer are determined. Encode the optimization object according to Equation (13), and take Equation (11) to be the fitness value function. Screen the structural parameters of the WNN by CPSO.
- (4)
- Use the designed WNN to predict LOW, R, and UP to obtain the fluctuation range of the TWHT.
- (5)
- Evaluate the performance of the model by the mean square error (MSE), the mean absolute error (MAE), and the correlation coefficient (r), calculated as:
5. Case Study
5.1. Fuzzy Information Granulation
5.2. Establishment of Optimized WNN Prediction Model
- (1)
- The selection of wavelet function.
- (2)
- The number of nodes for the input layer and the hidden layer.
- (3)
- The selection of the input weight wij, the output weight wj, the translation factor bj, and the stretching factor aj.
5.3. Comparison of Four Prediction Models
5.4. Comparison of the Predicted Fluctuation Range with the Measured Data
6. Conclusions
- (1)
- Information granulation can extract useful information from the raw data, which reduces the complexity of target data. Additionally, the wavelet neural network (WNN) has a strong nonlinear mapping capability. In this paper, the two methods are combined to make effective predictions of the transformer winding hotspot temperature fluctuation range.
- (2)
- By designing the WNN according to the field data, we obtain a superior prediction performance compared with various prediction models. The feasibility of the FIG-CPSO-WNN model for predicting the transformer winding hotspot temperature fluctuation range is thereby demonstrated.
- (3)
- The proposed model has a high prediction accuracy and guiding significance to the operation and maintenance of transformers. The new model can not only be used in the prediction of transformer winding hotspot temperature fluctuation range, but also provides ideas for prediction modeling in other areas.
