As the basic guarantee for people’s production and life, the safe operation of the power system has an important impact on the development and operation of society. To ensure the safe and stable operation of the power grid, predicting potential faults and taking reasonable preventive measures can effectively avoid the occurrence of power accidents. However, due to the difficulty in ensuring the prediction accuracy of traditional methods, there are issues of protection misoperation and rejection. Therefore, in order to achieve accurate prediction of power grid faults and avoid protection misoperation and rejection issues, a distribution network fault classification prediction model using a combination of three-layer data mining model (TLDM) and adaptive moment estimation (Adam) algorithm/random gradient descent algorithm improved backpropagation neural network (BPNN) is proposed. The implementation results showed that the classification accuracy of artificial fish school apriori, k-means clustering convolutional neural network model and TLDM for single-phase grounding faults was 93.2%, 91.5% and 96.6%, respectively. The classification accuracy for two-phase faults was 92.8%, 92.4% and 95.7%, respectively. The classification accuracy for two-phase grounding faults was 93.7%, 91.2% and 96.9%, respectively. The classification accuracy for three-phase faults was 93.3%, 92.1% and 97.1%, respectively. The TLDM had the highest classification accuracy. The average accuracy, average accuracy and average recall of the BPNN improved by the combination of the ADAM algorithm and random gradient descent algorithm were 94.1%, 90.9% and 88%, respectively, which were higher than the BPNN improved by the combination of ADAM algorithm and random gradient descent algorithm. The above results indicate that the proposed distribution network fault classification and prediction model has good performance and can achieve accurate prediction of distribution network faults.
USB was designed to standardize the connection of computer peripherals (including keyboards, pointing devices, digital cameras, printers, portable media players, disk drives and network adapters) to personal computers, both to communicate and to supply electric power. It has become commonplace on other devices, such as smartphones, PDAs and video game consoles. USB has effectively replaced a variety of earlier interfaces, such as parallel ports, as well as separate power chargers for portable devices. Since USB is hot pluggable, the connectors would be used more frequently. In this context, its reliability and life span is vital. Generally, an exhaustive series of circular insertion/extraction testing can be carried out to evaluate the USB life span. However, this method is time consuming and costly. This paper proposes a novel testing method based on BPNN for USB connector life span, which can estimate the useful life by predicting the residual life of the connector. This method allows the entire test process to stop before the specimen fails, and predicts the specimen’s life in advance based on pre-test data. Modeling process is described in detail in this paper and the test results show that the model can realize accurate prediction within a certain range.
Focusing on a sharp decline in the performance of endpoint detection algorithm in a complicated noise environment, a new speech endpoint detection method based on BPNN (back propagation neural network) and multiple features is presented. Firstly, maximum of short-time autocorrelation function and spectrum variance of speech signals are extracted respectively. Secondly, these feature vectors as the input of BP neural network are trained and modeled and then the Genetic Algorithm is used to optimize the BP Neural Network. Finally, the signal's type is determined according to the output of Neural Network. The experiments show that the correct rate of this proposed algorithm is improved, because this method has better robustness and adaptability than algorithm based on maximum of short-time autocorrelation function or spectrum variance.
