Detection and Classification of Power Quality Disturbances Using Sparse Signal Decomposition on Hybrid Dictionaries
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Several methods have been proposed for detection and classification of power quality (PQ) disturbances using wavelet, Hilbert transform, Gabor transform, Gabor-Wigner transform, S transform, and Hilbert-Haung transform. This paper presents a new method for detection and classification of single and combined PQ disturbances using a sparse signal decomposition (SSD) on overcomplete hybrid dictionary (OHD) matrix. The method first decomposes a PQ signal into detail and approximation signals using the proposed SSD technique with an OHD matrix containing impulse and sinusoidal elementary waveforms. The output detail signal adequately captures morphological features of transients (impulsive and oscillatory) and waveform distortions (harmonics and notching). Whereas the approximation signal contains PQ features of fundamental, flicker, dc-offset, and short- and long-duration variations (sags, swells, and interruptions). Thus, the required PQ features are extracted from the detail and approximation signals. Then, a hierarchical decision-tree algorithm is used for classification of single and combined PQ disturbances. The proposed method is tested using both synthetic and microgrid simulated PQ disturbances. Results demonstrate the accuracy and robustness of the method in detection and classification of single and combined PQ disturbances under noiseless and noisy conditions. The method can be easily expanded for compressed sensing based PQ monitoring networks.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
