Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of health monitoring of electric power equipment, and relates to a method and device for correlation analysis of multi-source time series data of electric power equipment. Background Art

[0002] The safe and stable operation of power equipment is crucial to the power system. Health monitoring of power equipment typically involves a variety of sensors to monitor physical quantities such as voltage, current, power, temperature, transformer oil temperature, partial discharge, vibration, and oil gas content. The data collected by these sensors forms a time series (also known as time series data), reflecting the equipment's operating status.

[0003] Time series represent various physical quantities of the same electrical equipment, so their changing trends often exhibit correlations. However, the correlations between multiple time series fall into various patterns, making it difficult to effectively handle complex dependencies between data. For example, the correlations between electrical quantities change rapidly, while those between temperature and dissolved gas in oil change more slowly and exhibit time lags. When a partial discharge occurs within a transformer, the corresponding partial discharge sensor immediately detects the electromagnetic signal, and the acoustic sensor also detects high-frequency acoustic signals. However, dissolved gas in oil requires a certain lag before being detected by the corresponding sensor. Some time series can be considered free variables, while others depend on multiple other time series. For example, power depends on the external load, while transformer oil temperature depends on both power and ambient temperature. Under normal operating conditions, some time series may not exhibit significant correlations. For example, when the load is within the limit, dissolved gas in oil does not change significantly with load. However, when the load is overloaded, characteristic gases such as hydrogen are generated in the oil. Summary of the Invention

[0037] The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below through the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The same reference numerals in the drawings indicate the same or similar components or parts. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale. The embodiments of the present application and the specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical solution of the present application, rather than limitations of the technical solution of the present application. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the technical features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0038] The term "and / or" in this document simply describes a relationship between related objects, indicating that three possible relationships exist. For example, "A and / or B" can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, or B exists alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this document generally indicates that the related objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0039] Example 1:

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for analyzing the correlation of multi-source time series data of power equipment. Figure 1 This is a flow chart of the method for analyzing the correlation of multi-source time series data of power equipment. This flow chart only shows the logical sequence of the method described in this embodiment. Under the premise of no conflict, in other possible embodiments of the present invention, different methods can be used. Figure 1 The steps shown or described are accomplished in the order shown.

[0041] The method for analyzing the correlation between multi-source time series data of power equipment provided in this embodiment can be applied to a terminal and can be executed by a device for analyzing the correlation between multi-source time series data of power equipment. The device can be implemented by software and / or hardware and can be integrated into the terminal.

[0042] See also Figure 1 The method of the embodiment of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:

[0043] Step 1: Collect the operating sequence data of the power equipment.

[0044] This operational time series data is collected from operating electrical equipment using a variety of sensors. For example, during transformer operation, voltage and current data are collected via sensors such as voltage transformers and current transformers installed at the high- and low-voltage terminals. Power sensors collect power data, temperature sensors collect winding temperature and transformer oil temperature data, oil level sensors monitor oil level changes, partial discharge sensors detect partial discharge, sound sensors capture sound signals, and gas sensors analyze the gas content in the oil (methane, ethane, ethylene, acetylene, hydrogen, total hydrocarbons, etc.). These sensors collect data according to their respective sampling intervals (e.g., voltage, current, and power may be sampled every millisecond, temperature may be sampled every second, and oil gas content may be sampled every hour), generating time series data of varying lengths and characteristics.

[0045] The present invention performs preprocessing such as data cleaning, missing value filling, and outlier detection on the collected runtime series data, and normalizes the preprocessed data.

[0046] Specifically, the collected data is first checked to remove obvious errors or unreasonable data points. For occasional missing values, linear interpolation is used to fill them. Outlier detection and correction includes: calculating the mean of each time series and standard deviation , will exceed Data points with a large range are considered as outliers and are corrected based on the outlier neighboring data points.

[0047] The formula for normalization is:

[0048] ,

[0049] in, is the normalized data, are the data before normalization.

[0050] Considering the different sampling periods of different time series, it is necessary to fit and resample each normalized time series. For time series with different change patterns, linear piecewise fitting or polynomial fitting methods can be used. At the same timestamp, the fitting of each time series is resampled. Suppose there are M time series. After resampling, a series of M-dimensional vectors are obtained, and the value of each dimension comes from the corresponding time series.

[0051] Step 2: Perform time lag correction on the runtime series data.

[0052] Performing time lag correction on the running series data includes: setting time lag parameters for each running series data according to the physical characteristics and historical data characteristics of each running series data , to affect the time series data with delay Corrected to .

[0053] use Instead of inputting the original time series into the transformer, the correlation between the two time series data can be analyzed more accurately, resulting in better performance.

[0054] Methods for determining the time lag parameter include: If the correlation between two time series varies monotonically with the time lag parameter, a binary search can be used to quickly find the optimal time lag parameter. For more general correlation relationships, a sliding window search can be used to determine the time lag parameter. Furthermore, the time lag parameter can be used as a hyperparameter of the transformer model and determined during training using a hyperparameter search method (such as a grid search).

[0055] Step 3: Use Gumbel reparameterization sampling to estimate the connection probability between the corrected runtime series data and generate the adjacency matrix of the graph structure.

[0056] Gumbel reparameterization sampling solves the gradient backpropagation problem in deep learning models by converting the discrete sampling process into a continuous and differentiable relaxation form.

[0057] Specifically, the Gumbel reparameterization sampling strategy is used to generate the correlation dependence probability of any two time series in the runtime data, assuming that and The length of the alignment is For two time series, the Gumbel reparameterization method is used to generate the correlation dependency probabilities of the two time series and . A total of M*M correlation dependency probabilities are generated for M time series, forming an M×M graph structure adjacency matrix. The adjacency matrix fully represents the correlation dependency relationship between each time series.

[0058] Step 4: Input the adjacency matrix into a graph encoding model composed of dilated convolution and graph convolution, and input the obtained output together with the runtime data into a transformer model to obtain analysis results of the correlation of the runtime data.

[0059] In order to adjust the parameters of the graph structure during training, the adjacency matrix is ​​input into the graph encoding model. The structure of the graph encoding model is as follows: Figure 2 As shown in Figure 1, it is composed of multiple dilated convolutions and graph convolutions in series, and residual connections are made between the dilated convolutions and graph convolutions.

[0060] At the same time, the original runtime data is input into the graph encoding model to extract the features contained therein.

[0061] like Figure 2 As shown, the transformer model includes encoder 1, encoder 2, encoder 3 and decoder connected in sequence.

[0062] In order to capture long-range dependencies within a time series, the encoder 1 of the present invention includes a multi-branch attention mechanism, which includes global learning attention and local neighborhood attention, expressed as:

[0063] ,

[0064] in, is the local neighborhood attention, Learning attention for global context; Represents a dimension concatenation operation.
