Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

State estimation is a data processing algorithm for converting redundant meter measurements and other information into an estimate of the state of a power system. Relying heavily on meter measurements, state estimation has proven to be vulnerable to cyber attacks. In this paper, a novel targeted false data injection attack (FDIA) model against AC state estimation is proposed. Leveraging on the intrinsic load dynamics in ambient conditions and important properties of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, we, from the viewpoint of intruders, design an algorithm to extract power network parameters purely from PMU data, which are further used to construct the FDIA vector. Requiring no network parameters and relying only on limited phasor measurement unit (PMU) data, the proposed FDIA model can target specific states and launch large deviation attacks. Sufficient conditions for the proposed FDIA model are also developed. Various attack vectors and attacking regions are studied in the IEEE 39-bus system, showing that the proposed FDIA method can successfully bypass the bad data detection and launch targeted large deviation attacks with very high probabilities.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
