[0051] The technical solutions in the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments.

[0052] As shown in the drawings, Figure 1 The present application proposes a surge arrester operation state data optimization method based on improved fuzzy clustering and dynamic weighted fusion, which effectively overcomes the sensitivity of the traditional fuzzy clustering algorithm to the initial value and the limitation of the Euclidean distance, can automatically identify and eliminate strong volatility and low-quality data points disturbed by interference, and significantly improves the accuracy and robustness of the health assessment model, specifically including:

[0053] S1, collecting the operation monitoring original data of the surge arrester, performing frequency domain feature extraction and normalization processing.

[0054] Specifically, the present application collects historical operation data of the surge arrester of a monitoring station under different environmental conditions, covering full current, full current rate of change, resistive leakage current, leakage current rate of change, environmental temperature, phase-to-phase temperature difference, rainfall, pollution level, etc.

[0055] The collected original current signal is subjected to fast Fourier transform (FFT), the time domain signal is converted into a frequency domain signal, and key feature parameter values are extracted from the FFT spectrum result, including: full current peak value, full current effective value, fundamental wave effective value, fundamental wave initial phase angle, third harmonic amplitude, third harmonic effective value, fifth harmonic amplitude, and fifth harmonic effective value.

[0056] All the feature parameters (including environmental parameters and electrical feature parameters) collected and calculated are subjected to normalization processing to obtain N is the total number of collected samples; and the dimensional influence is eliminated to prepare for subsequent analysis.

[0057] S2, setting the density peak method to initialize the clustering center of the comprehensive decision value condition.

[0058] In order to overcome the defect that the traditional FCM algorithm is sensitive to the initial clustering center, the present application introduces the local density (D) and minimum distance (Dmin) of the sample based on the density peak clustering algorithm. ​The application discloses a density peak initialization method of the fuzzy C-means (FCM) algorithm. In the lightning arrester operation state data monitoring, the data points with high local density usually represent common or stable operation conditions, and the data points in the low density area may correspond to abnormal or transition states. By automatically selecting initial clustering centers, the randomness of the traditional FCM is avoided, the selected center points fall in the dense area of data distribution, and it is more likely to approach the global optimal solution. Compared with the traditional FCM, the algorithm can improve the convergence speed and calculation efficiency, enhance the accuracy of lightning arrester typical operation mode recognition, and provide a reliable basis for subsequent state division and fault diagnosis.

[0059] To more accurately select the initial clustering center, the application sets a comprehensive decision value condition on the basis of the original density peak method, that is, the relative sizes of the local density and the minimum distance are considered at the same time. The double screening mechanism ensures that the selected center is located in the dense area of data and can effectively distinguish different data clusters, thereby further improving the accuracy and robustness of the clustering algorithm.

[0060] Specifically, the density peak method is used to initialize the clustering center, and the steps include:

[0061] S21, calculating the Euclidean distance between any two points in the lightning arrester sample set . ;

[0062] S22, sorting all the Euclidean distances between sample points in ascending order to form a set . , determining the cut-off distance . is an index value:

[0063]

[0064] wherein, is a weight coefficient of the lightning arrester operation, and is generally 0.01-0.02;

[0065] S23, calculating the local density and the minimum distance .

[0066]

[0067] S24, respectively normalizing the local density and the minimum distance to obtain and , and calculating the comprehensive decision value of each point: .

[0068] S25, arranging the comprehensive decision values in descending order to form a sequence , calculate adjacent difference value and determine index position C corresponding to maximum difference value as total number of clustering center, determine all points in sequence with index less than C as initial clustering center point , .

[0069] S3, adopt Gaussian kernel function to carry out nonlinear mapping to processed data, construct improved fuzzy clustering (IFCM) objective function with regular term and solve.

[0070] In order to solve the problem of nonlinear distribution of data, the Gaussian kernel function is introduced to carry out nonlinear mapping on the sample, so that the data is more easily clustered in a high-dimensional feature space, is a bandwidth parameter, and the Gaussian kernel function formula is as follows:

[0071]

[0072] Specifically, in S3, the improved fuzzy clustering objective function with a regular term is as follows:

[0073]

[0074] Wherein, is a Gaussian kernel function, is a clustering center, is a membership matrix, indicating the degree of the i-th sample belonging to the k-th clustering center , and m is a fuzzy weighting index; is a regularization coefficient, as a smoothing factor, and the regular term is used to balance the clustering confidence and suppress the extreme bias of abnormal data points on fuzzy membership.

[0075] As shown in the following figure, the clustering result after dimension reduction of high-dimensional frequency domain features by using the PCA method is shown. Figure 2 Each data point represents a lightning arrester operation data record, and different clusters identified by the IFCM (improved fuzzy C-means) algorithm are distinguished by color. The clustering boundary is clear, and the clustering centers are uniformly distributed.

[0076] The density peak initialization and kernel function mapping strategy proposed in the application can effectively improve the clustering stability and enhance the ability to distinguish abnormal data points. The points at the edge or isolated points can be used as candidate abnormal points for subsequent elimination by a dynamic scoring mechanism.

[0077] S4, a dynamic weighted fusion mechanism combining fuzzy membership and Mahalanobis distance is constructed to build a data comprehensive scoring model.

[0078] Specifically, the S4 specific steps include:

[0079] S41, calculate the Mahalanobis distance of each feature dimension of each arrester sample set based on the historical normal operation condition data of the arrester:

[0080]

[0081] Wherein, and are the mean and covariance of ; represents the degree of deviation of the i-th sample from the normal operation statistical mode;

[0082] S42, calculate the dynamic weight of each sample data :

[0083]

[0084] Wherein, represents the credibility or weight of the data point in the quality evaluation, which has dynamic adaptability; is a very small positive number, used to ensure numerical stability, and generally takes the value of .

[0085] S43, fuse the clustering membership degree and the dynamic weight , to build the comprehensive quality score of the arrester sample set data :

[0086]

[0087] As shown in Figure 3 , the distribution of the two groups of data before and after optimization on the health score index is compared by means of box plot. The horizontal axis represents the processing state (before optimization / after optimization), and the vertical axis represents the health score (ranging from 0 to 1). From the figure, it can be seen that the data score after optimization moves upward as a whole, and the mean and median are significantly improved. At the same time, the abnormal value points are reduced, and the box is more concentrated, which indicates that the data quality has been improved, and the volatility has decreased.

[0088] S5, remove abnormal points according to the adaptive score threshold.

[0089] Specifically, according to the mean-standard deviation threshold method, calculate the adaptive score threshold , remove the low-quality data points of ;

[0090]

[0091] Wherein, is the adaptive coefficient, used to control the strictness of screening, the value range of ; is the mean of all scores, representing the average data quality level of the current data set, is the standard deviation of all scores, reflecting the fluctuation of quality, and the threshold sets the acceptable minimum quality standard; the calculation of the adaptive threshold ensures the objectivity and consistency of data screening, without relying on artificial experience to set fixed empirical values.

[0092] In the data monitoring of surge arresters, these abnormal data points are usually data records affected by electromagnetic pulse interference, temporary sensor failure or instantaneous working condition changes, and their quality scores are significantly lower than the average level. Effective elimination of the strong fluctuation pulse points can significantly improve the smoothness and continuity of the data trend, providing a high-quality and reliable data basis for subsequent health assessment models.

[0093] Figure 4 is a comparison chart of the full current signals of the surge arresters before and after the method optimization in the embodiment of the present application, and the comparison result shows that there are strong fluctuation pulse points in the original data; after fuzzy comprehensive evaluation, the pulse interference data is eliminated, which can significantly improve the smoothness and continuity of the data trend; the data after comprehensive evaluation is more suitable for health assessment models.

[0094] In summary, the innovation of the present application is:

[0095] 1. Improved fuzzy C-means clustering: The traditional fuzzy C-means (FCM) clustering is sensitive to the initial clustering center, and it is difficult to handle the non-linear and non-spherical distribution of surge arrester operating data under complex working conditions using the Euclidean distance. A new strategy needs to be introduced to overcome the randomness of traditional FCM and the limitations of distance measurement, in order to accurately identify the typical operating mode of the surge arrester.

[0096] 2. Dynamic weighted fusion mechanism: The Mahalanobis distance and data noise suppression weight are introduced to realize dynamic and objective quantification of data quality.

[0097] 3. Adaptive scoring and threshold screening: The threshold is automatically determined based on statistical characteristics, effectively identifying and eliminating abnormal fluctuation points.

Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined in the present application can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present application.
