Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The challenge is to compress a topology recognition model for power grids while maintaining accuracy, to enable deployment on IoTIPS terminals with limited hardware resources.
Innovation Solution
The method involves pruning the model to remove redundant channels and layers, followed by quantizing the weight parameters of neural network layers to reduce bit quantity, and iteratively training and compressing the model until a compressed version is achieved that meets accuracy requirements.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If the topology recognition model is compressed to reduce model size, then the model can be deployed on IOTIPS terminals with limited hardware resources, but the measurement accuracy of the topology recognition model decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the model compression process into two distinct phases: pruning (removing redundant neurons and connections) and quantization (reducing precision of weight parameters). This segmentation allows systematic reduction of model size while managing accuracy impact through controlled stages.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes key parameters of the neural network model including pruning ratio, quantization bit-width (e.g., from 32-bit to 8-bit), and activation function parameters. These parameter changes enable model size reduction while optimizing the balance between compression ratio and recognition accuracy.
2Volume of stationary object
If the topology recognition model is compressed, then storage and deployment on IOTIPS terminals becomes feasible, but the computing power requirements change
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces high-precision floating-point computations (32-bit/64-bit) with lower-precision fixed-point or integer computations (8-bit/16-bit). This substitution reduces both storage requirements and computational power consumption, making the model suitable for resource-constrained IOTIPS terminals.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the numerical precision parameter from standard floating-point (32-bit) to reduced precision formats (8-bit, 16-bit). This parameter change directly reduces storage volume and computing power requirements while maintaining acceptable recognition accuracy through optimized quantization schemes.

AI summary
Disclosed are a method and apparatus for compressing a topology recognition model, an electronic device, and a medium. The method includes: pruning a to-be-compressed model to obtain a pruned model, and training the pruned model to obtain a trained pruned model; quantifying a bit quantity of a weight parameter of each neural network layer in the trained pruned model from a first bit quantity to a second bit quantity to obtain a highly-quantified pruned model, and training the highly-quantified pruned model to obtain a trained highly-quantified pruned model; using the trained highly-quantified pruned model as the to-be-compressed model, continuously pruning and quantifying the to-be-compressed model until a compressed topology recognition model is obtained, and deploying the compressed topology recognition model on an Internet of Things in Power Systems (IOTIPS) terminal, to reduce a size of the topology recognition model while ensuring the topology recognition model meets an accuracy requirement.
