Abstract
Distributed optimization has been shown to be one promising method for tackling reactive power dispatch, however the performance of distributed algorithms is known to be dependent on how the given problem is partitioned. The question of how to optimally partition a power grid for use in distributed optimization remains open in the literature. In the present paper, we test partitions generated by the graph partitioned KaFFPa, METIS, and spectral clustering using five edge-weighting metrics. The standard IEEE 14, 30, and 57 bus models are used as benchmark case studies and the Augmented Lagrangian Alternating Direction Inexact Newton algorithm is used as the distributed optimization algorithm. It is shown that performance varies drastically depending on which partitioner and weighting is used. Overall, KaFFPa with weightings given by the Y-bus matrix yields the best results.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
