Specifically, each charging pile is equipped with power monitoring equipment that records electrical parameters such as voltage, current, and power at a frequency of seconds or even milliseconds during the charging process. The frequency and granularity of data collection can be adjusted based on actual needs to ensure that even minor fluctuations and sudden anomalies during the charging process are captured.

[0022] The electricity consumption data of the charging pile (electrical parameters such as current, voltage and power) are continuously recorded in the form of time series to obtain electricity consumption time series data. In order to fully explore the dependency relationship between different time points in the electricity consumption time series data, dynamic time association modeling is introduced. Based on the long short-term memory network, the transform domain convolutional network is used to perform transform convolution operations on the electricity consumption time series data, output time series features, and generate time dynamic features based on the time series dependency relationship. Specifically, the electricity consumption time series data of the charging pile is set to ,in Representative time point Power consumption data (such as current, voltage or power values) on is the length of the time series; time points The dynamic characteristics of need to comprehensively consider the correlation between the current moment and the past moment.

The statistical characteristics refer to the analysis results of factors such as the change trend, periodicity, lag effect, and abnormal response duration in the historical power consumption time series data. They are used to assist in determining the dependency strength and decay rate between time points. Statistical methods are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here. It is through the transformation convolution operation from the historical time point Electricity usage data of charging piles The time series features extracted from the data are normalized during feature extraction, so there is no dimension problem.

[0024] Since charging piles are distributed in different spatial locations, there may be correlation between the electricity usage behaviors of charging piles. For example, adjacent charging piles may be affected by the same external environmental factors and show similar electricity usage patterns. Therefore, based on convolutional neural networks, spatial correlation modeling is introduced to capture the spatial relationship and mutual influence between different charging piles. By considering the spatial dependence between charging piles, the interaction between different charging piles can be understood and abnormal electricity usage behaviors can be effectively identified. is the location coordinate set of the charging pile, where is the number of charging piles, Is the location index of the charging station, ranging from 1 to , the spatial correlation characteristics of each charging pile are calculated using the following formula:

Spatial relationships are used to enhance the spatial correlation model's ability to learn similar power usage behaviors between charging piles, helping to identify abnormal power usage behaviors caused by similar spatial layouts.

[0026] S2. Through the spatiotemporal scale transformation model, the temporal dynamic features and spatial correlation features are fused to generate multi-scale fused spatiotemporal features. Based on the multi-scale fused spatiotemporal features, nonlinear mapping and classification are performed to obtain a multi-dimensional probability vector. Based on the multi-dimensional probability vector, the anomaly type is determined and abnormal power usage behavior of charging piles is identified.

[0027] The electricity consumption behavior of charging piles may show different patterns at different time scales and spatial scales. In order to better extract spatiotemporal features and fuse information at different scales, a spatiotemporal scale transformation model is introduced to fuse spatiotemporal features from different scale perspectives to enhance the ability to identify abnormal behavior. Specifically, multiple scales are introduced. At each scale, the spatial correlation features and temporal dynamic features are weighted through the corresponding transformation matrix to obtain spatiotemporal features. The spatial and temporal information is integrated to ensure that the spatiotemporal features at different scales can fully reflect the abnormal behavior of the charging piles, so as to capture multi-level spatiotemporal relationships and thus enhance the ability to identify abnormal behavior. The spatiotemporal features at each scale are calculated using the following formula:

The back propagation algorithm and optimizer update method are technical means well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here. The spatiotemporal characteristics of the charging pile are captured from different scale angles through the spatiotemporal scale transformation model.

[0029] The spatiotemporal features of all scales of the output are subjected to linear transformation and weighted fusion, and a classification bias term is added to obtain the multi-scale fused spatiotemporal features; the multi-scale fused spatiotemporal features are used as the input of the multi-layer perceptron (MLP) model, and then processed through multiple fully connected layers and activation functions for nonlinear mapping and discrimination to obtain the final classification output; the multi-layer perceptron (MLP) model is a technical means well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here; the final classification output is a multi-dimensional probability vector representing the probability distribution of abnormal states, and each dimension in the multi-dimensional probability vector represents the prediction confidence of the multi-layer perceptron model for a certain abnormal type, such as overload, power surge, charging interruption, etc. The number of dimensions is consistent with the number of abnormal types. The calculation formula of the multi-dimensional probability vector is as follows:

It is used to identify whether there is abnormal behavior in the charging pile and its abnormality type (such as overload, short circuit, etc.); Indicates the The weight matrix of each scale is responsible for mapping the spatiotemporal features to the final classification space. It is initialized using Xavier and automatically learned through the back propagation algorithm. The Xavier method and the back propagation algorithm are both well-known technical means to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here. It is a classification bias term, which is used to translate the spatiotemporal features after linear weighted summation, so that the multi-layer perceptron model has stronger representation ability. Its value range is [-1,1]; Assume there is abnormal type (for example: overload, short circuit, current instability, etc.), then the multidimensional probability vector is a -dimensional vector, where: Represents the probability of "overload" occurring; Represents the probability of "short circuit"; and so on, Represents the probability of the last abnormal behavior; By multidimensional probability vector The maximum value of is used to determine the current abnormal behavior of the charging pile. For example, if If it is the maximum value and it represents "current instability", it is judged that the current charging pile has abnormal behavior of unstable current, thus providing a basis for subsequent management and maintenance.
