Article "Distributed Learning Applications in Power Systems: Methods, Gaps, and Challenges" has been published in MDPI Energies. Congratulations, Nastaran! Abstract: In recent years, machine learning methods have found numerous applications in power systems for load forecasting, voltage control, power quality monitoring, anomaly detection, etc. Distributed learning is a subfield of machine learning and a descendant of the multi-agent systems field. Distributed learning is a collaboratively decentralized machine learning algorithm designed to handle large data sizes, solve complex learning problems, and increase privacy. Moreover, it can reduce the risk of a single point of failure compared to fully centralized approaches and lower the bandwidth and central storage requirements. This paper introduces three existing distributed learning frameworks and reviews the applications that have been proposed for them in power systems so far.…

Article "Probabilistic Forecasting of Dynamic Thermal Line Rating with Temporal Correlations" was accepted to the International Journal of Electrical Power and Energy Systems. Congratulations Tomas! Abstract: Dynamic Thermal Line Rating is a technology that optimizes the utility of overhead power transmission lines by dynamically adjusting the rating according to current ambient conditions. It is often applied in discrete time intervals (i.e., the rating is updated hourly or daily) based on a rating forecast for the next period. This paper examines the effects of temporal discretization on rating prediction, discusses the importance of temporal correlations, and proposes an approach to include these correlations in a rating prediction system. It demonstrates that predictions may be biased towards extreme values if temporal correlation is not taken into account. The proposed solution to this…
