We also collect user electricity consumption habits, such as peak hours, off-peak hours, and frequency of use of specific devices, through smart meters and sensors.

[0054] Set up automated scripts, install database software, regularly scrape data from various data sources and store it in the database. For some data that cannot be automatically retrieved, assign a dedicated person to manually enter it and ensure the accuracy and completeness of the data.

[0055] Identify and remove obviously erroneous data points from the collected data, including but not limited to values ​​that are out of reasonable range or missing values, and fill in the missing data points using interpolation, K-nearest neighbor algorithm and time series prediction methods;

[0056] Transforming all data to the same scale using Z-score normalization helps improve the convergence speed and performance of machine learning models, ensuring that all data uses consistent units, including but not limited to converting all temperature data to degrees Celsius and all electricity data to kilowatt-hours.

[0057] Extract periodic, trend, and fluctuation features from time series data, calculate basic statistics, including but not limited to mean, standard deviation, maximum, and minimum values, to describe the basic characteristics of the data, apply signal processing techniques to extract frequency domain features, and use principal component analysis for dimensionality reduction to retain the most representative features.

[0058] Choose an appropriate machine learning algorithm based on the prediction target and data characteristics. Considering the needs of time series prediction, you can choose support vector regression, random forest, gradient boosting tree and long short-term memory network in deep learning. Use cross-validation to evaluate the performance of different algorithms and select the algorithm with the best performance as the final model.

[0059] The preprocessed data is divided into training and test sets, typically in a ratio of 80% training set and 20% test set. Model parameters are adjusted using grid search to improve prediction accuracy. The selected machine learning model is trained using the training set data to ensure that the model can fully learn the patterns and rules in the data. The model's prediction performance is evaluated using the test set data, including but not limited to mean squared error and mean absolute error metrics, to ensure that the model has good generalization ability.

[0060] By using machine learning models to analyze historical electricity usage data, weather forecasts, and user behavior patterns, a future electricity demand forecasting model can be generated.

[0061] Based on a future electricity demand forecasting model, future electricity demand is obtained. The transformer's operating parameters are then automatically adjusted according to this future demand, as expressed below.

[0062]

[0063] Where P(t) is the predicted future electricity demand at time t, where t is the predicted time point, representing the specific future time point, D(τ) is historical electricity usage data, reflecting past electricity consumption patterns, W(τ) is weather forecast data, representing meteorological conditions at the past time point τ, and U(τ) is user behavior pattern, reflecting users' electricity consumption habits.

[0085] Set the initial parameters for the operating system and related software, including but not limited to time synchronization, user permissions, and communication protocols; create the necessary database table structure; set indexes and constraints; and ensure efficient data storage.

[0086] Select appropriate network testing tools and use them to test the stability of data transmission between smart nodes and energy management panels.

[0096] Assess the characteristics of frequency domain data, such as periodicity, harmonic components, and noise levels, and clarify the specific objectives of the analysis, such as predicting power demand, fault detection, and anomaly identification.

[0097] S4. The operational intelligent data analysis and decision-making process is completed locally through a distributed sensing network, encrypted communication is initiated, and a shared key is generated. The specific steps are as follows:

[0098] Select an appropriate AI algorithm based on the characteristics of the frequency domain feature data and the analysis objectives;

[0099] Collect sufficient historical data, including frequency domain feature data and their corresponding labels or output values, and divide the data into training set, validation set and test set, with a general ratio of 70% training set, 15% validation set and 15% test set.

[0100] The selected AI model is initially trained using the training set data to ensure that the model can learn the patterns in the data. The model performance is evaluated using the validation set data, and the model parameters are adjusted to improve prediction accuracy and generalization ability.

[0101] The K-fold cross-validation method is adopted to divide the training set into multiple subsets, which are used as the validation set in turn for multiple training and validations to ensure the stability and reliability of the model. The results of each validation are recorded, the average performance index is calculated, and the overall performance of the model is evaluated.

[0102] The model uses a grid search to traverse possible combinations of hyperparameters to find the optimal parameter configuration. Then, it uses a Bayesian optimization method to dynamically adjust the hyperparameters to further improve the model performance. Finally, it uses test set data to evaluate the model performance and ensure that it has good generalization ability.

[0103] Based on the analysis results, automatic response rules are set up to define the actions to be taken in different situations, including but not limited to starting the cooling system, issuing alarms, and adjusting transformer parameters.

A handshake protocol is executed to verify the identities of both ends and ensure communication security. According to the BB84 protocol rules, the sender randomly selects one of two non-orthogonal basis vectors, generates a single photon and encodes it into a qubit. The single photon is then sent to the receiver through a quantum channel. The receiver also randomly selects a basis vector for measurement and records the measurement result.

[0115] Collect the data analysis and decision results that need to be transmitted from intelligent nodes or local data analysis platforms, ensuring that the data format is consistent and facilitates subsequent processing and transmission;

[0116] Securely retrieve the encryption key from the encrypted storage medium, verify the key's validity, and ensure it has not expired or been tampered with. Select a suitable encryption algorithm to ensure data security during transmission. Use the obtained encryption key to encrypt the data analysis and decision results, generate an encrypted data packet, and add an integrity check code to the encrypted data packet to ensure it has not been tampered with during data transmission.

[0117] Ensure that the quantum communication channel has been established and is in working order. Send the encrypted data analysis and decision-making results to the central management system through the quantum communication channel, monitor the transmission process in real time, and ensure that there is no data packet loss or error.

[0118] The central management system receives data packets from the quantum communication channel and confirms successful reception. It checks the format and integrity of the data packets to ensure they meet expectations, extracts the integrity check code from the data packets, and compares it with the calculated hash value. If the check code does not match, it records the abnormal situation and takes corresponding measures, such as requesting data retransmission.
