Partial discharge (PD) is one of the major form expressions of gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) insulation defects. Because PD will accelerate equipment aging, online monitoring and fault diagnosis plays a significant role in ensuring safe and reliable operation of the power system. Owing to feature engineering or vanishing gradients, however, existing pattern recognition methods for GIS PD are complex and inefficient. To improve recognition accuracy, a novel GIS PD pattern recognition method based on a light-scale convolutional neural network (LCNN) without artificial feature engineering is proposed. Firstly, GIS PD data are obtained through experiments and finite-difference time-domain simulations. Secondly, data enhancement is reinforced by a conditional variation auto-encoder. Thirdly, the LCNN structure is applied for GIS PD pattern recognition while the deconvolution neural network is used for model visualization. The recognition accuracy of the LCNN was 98.13%. Compared with traditional machine learning and other deep convolutional neural networks, the proposed method can effectively improve recognition accuracy and shorten calculation time, thus making it much more suitable for the ubiquitous-power Internet of Things and big data.

The power system on the offshore platform is of great importance since it is the power source for oil and gas exploitation, procession and transportation. Transformers constitute key equipment in the power system, and partial discharge (PD) is its most common fault that should be monitored and identified ın a timely and accurate manner. However, the existing PD classifiers cannot meet the demand for real-time online monitoring due to their disadvantages of high memory consumption and poor timeliness. Therefore, a new MobileNets convolutional neural network (MCNN) model is proposed to identify the PD pattern of transformers based on the phase resolved partial discharge (PRPD) spectrum. The model has the advantages of low computational complexity, fast reasoning speed and excellent classification performance. Firstly, we make four typical defect models of PD and conduct a test in a laboratory to collect the PRPD spectra as the data sample. In order to further improve the feature expression ability and recognition accuracy of the model, the lightweight attention mechanism Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) module and the nonlinear function hard-swish (h-swish) are added after constructing the MCNN model to eliminate the potential accuracy loss in PD pattern recognition. The MCNN model is trained and tested with the pre-processed PRPD spectrum, and a variety of methods are used to visualize the model to verify the effectiveness of the model. Finally, the performance of MCNN is compared with many existing PD pattern recognition models based on convolutional neural network (CNN), the results show that the proposed MCNN can further reduce the number of parameters of the model and improve the calculation speed to achieve the best performance on the premise of good recognition accuracy.

The interdisciplinary nature of sports and the presence of various systemic and non-systemic factors introduce challenges in predicting sports match outcomes using a single disciplinary approach. In contrast to previous studies that use sports performance metrics and statistical models, this study is the first to apply a deep learning approach in financial time series modeling to predict sports match outcomes. The proposed approach has two main components: a convolutional neural network (CNN) classifier for implicit pattern recognition and a logistic regression model for match outcome judgment. First, the raw data used in the prediction are derived from the betting market odds and actual scores of each game, which are transformed into sports candlesticks. Second, CNN is used to classify the candlesticks time series on a graphical basis. To this end, the original 1D time series are encoded into 2D matrix images using Gramian angular field and are then fed into the CNN classifier. In this way, the winning probability of each matchup team can be derived based on historically implied behavioral patterns. Third, to further consider the differences between strong and weak teams, the CNN classifier adjusts the probability of winning the match by using the logistic regression model and then makes a final judgment regarding the match outcome. We empirically test this approach using 18,944 National Football League game data spanning 32 years and find that using the individual historical data of each team in the CNN classifier for pattern recognition is better than using the data of all teams. The CNN in conjunction with the logistic regression judgment model outperforms the CNN in conjunction with SVM, Naïve Bayes, Adaboost, J48, and random forest, and its accuracy surpasses that of betting market prediction.
